Using Swordplay with a Mislit Rusted Sword equipped, opposing an enemy's melee attack.
Notes
The base defense without a mislit rusted sword seems to be 2 + (Melee Power - Opponent's Melee Power).This defense is higher with the mislit rusted sword equipped, but the current formula is unknown.
If fighting multiple opponents, this attack will defend against multiple melee attacks at once, but only with the "overwhelming" message.
