Bladestaff

The Bladestaff is a melee weapon available to Ann Flores in ANNO: Mutationem. It is an upgrade or variation of the Twin Blades but distinct enough to be considered a separate weapon.
While similar to the Twin Blades, it performs more like the Light Sword, offering relatively fast attacks but requiring more commitment. Players can switch between the Bladestaff and Twin Blades, though it is more complex, especially on consoles with analog stick controls.
The standard combo's third hit triggers a lengthy animation. The Bladestaff features its own version of the Light Sword's Shadowstep, called "Naraka," the final upgrade in the Twin Blade path. Players can use the Air Blade attack for significant damage during openings, though it involves a lengthy animation and may not always deal substantial damage.
