For a full guide on the Rapier, please refer to our dedicate page.

Listed below are the official patch notes for changes to the Rapier abilities, perks, and masteries.

• Fixed an issue where Tondo, Flourish, and Fleche had their cooldown begin 1 frame before the hitbox would appear. This resulted in the abilities going on cooldown if the attack was interrupted early, even if it did not hit.

• Improved the homing of Flurry to fix an issue where subsequent attacks would frequently miss or be hard to hit.
• Overwhelm — Fixed an issue where this upgrade was incorrectly applying Stamina damage instead of just block damage.

• Reduced cooldown from 11 to 6 seconds.
• And Again — Fixed an issue that caused this upgrade to only function on blocking targets.

• Cooldown reduced from 20 to 12 seconds.
• Base Stun duration increased from 1.5 to 2 seconds.
• Lasting Consequence — Stun duration increased from 2 to 2.5 seconds.

• Momentum — Increased bonus damage from 25% to 30%.
• Swiftness — Fixed an issue where this passive was granting Haste from bleed damage ticks instead of actual weapon hits.
