These are the min/max rolls.

No one managed to catch the leak for it 3 days ago, (https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/4l50kp/what_will_be_your_first_build_in_230/d3l84ek?context=3) but I wanted to give people some time to look at it before it launches. Any questions about it I'll be happy to answer.


FAQ:

100 Physical damage is per hit, per enemy. Mitigateable by %Phys or Slayer's new 50% reduced reflected damage.

GGG does not allow maraketh weapon bases, so it cannot be an exquisite blade.

http://demonssouls.wikidot.com/hiltless Is the reference for my sword.

This does not work with "When Hit" passives.

This will not in general be the case. Reflect is intentionally prevented from triggering pretty much any on/when hit effects. It's just damage (hence why CwDT works, you still take the damage). - Mark GGG https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/4lsdra/new_unique_sword_hiltless_coming_in_prophecy/d3psn47

Mark clarifying it does not work with VMS.

Unsure of the rarity tier.

So it's a chaos blade in PoE form? That weapon is so fucking bad in III now lol

More of a reference to the Demon's Souls variant, but yep pretty much.

Eh, seems risky unless youre like Flicker where you dont need to use multi-strike to scale.

Awesome sword. Love the Souls series. If I ever find one I will definitely have to try out a build with this. Possibly involving Juggernauts and Immortal Call, to proc it yourself for infinite physical immunity. Sounds interesting.

Demon's Souls is the reason I bought a PS3. Tried it at a friend's house, died a billion times and couldn't finish the first zone. Left my friend's house, went to the store and bought ps3 + Demon's souls, the game couldn't win afterall.

Wow nice. More self-hitting is awesome.
Pitty they will nerf VMS in the same patch. CWDT seems like the way to go I think.

I think they thought of that already, which is why the reflected damage is physical. You won't be able to proc Immortal Call again until it expires.

VMS is actually so fucking bad now in the next patch it's unreal.

Reaver sword is the perfect base since it is the fastest 2H of all
However it is ironic that this sword needs increased attack speed mod

Just realised it is called "Hiltless", not "Hitless". Makes more sense now.
