Dancing WeaponLevel 20+ Rare

This blade floats beside you, cutting through the air as a dancer glides across a ballroom.

Weapon: Heavy blade or light blade

Enhancement Bonus: attack rolls and damage rolls

Critical: +1d6 damage per plus

Power ✦ Daily (Minor Action)

You release the dancing weapon, and it hovers near you until the end of your next turn or until you drop to 0 hit points or fewer.

You can deliver basic attacks and attack powers through the dancing weapon as if you were holding it yourself (including all attack and damage modifiers you'd normally apply).

If you do not attack with a dancing weapon before the end of your turn, it makes a melee basic attack against an enemy of your choice within 2 squares of you as if you were wielding it. A dancing weapon cannot make opportunity attacks.

Except during brief moments when it is attacking, a dancing weapon remains in your space, even if you move away or are teleported. It automatically resists any attempts by other creatures to take hold of it.

At any time during the encounter, you can take hold of the weapon again. This ends the effect.

Sustain Minor. The sword continues to hover and fight near you until the end of your next turn.
