Trivia[]
The Naginata is the only Polearm Class weapon with a Fast attack speed. Although it does less damage per hit than the Halberd and Battle Scythe, its average damage per second is greater.
The naginata is a Japanese weapon that was used by samurai and foot soldiers to create space on the battlefield and add power to strikes. During the Edo Period, as it became less useful on the battlefield, the art of wielding naginata was practiced primarily by women of the samurai class, who were expected to defend their homes while others were away at war. Since it allows users to keep opponents at a distance, advantages in height, weight, and upper body strength are lessened.
The artifact version of the Naginata is Sharpspine.
