Pool of the item type from the game files, version 2.8.0. Skill damage bonuses only carry weight for their class. All properties of this slot

Clearly a weapon of great renown, this flail once belonged to Sir Tomas, the Gyrfalcon. This knight was heralded for his bravery and speed, and he took the gyrfalcon as his coat of arms, soaring to victory many times beneath its wings.

Gyrfalcon's Foote

This one-handed flail is tailored to the Crusader's Blessed Shield: it removes the skill's resource cost entirely and greatly increases its damage. This lets you ricochet the consecrated shield through whole rows of enemies without pause, since no more Wrath is spent. A situational throwing skill thus becomes a constant main damage dealer.

For a Blessed Shield build this flail is therefore the absolute foundation. Practical tip: position yourself so the shield can bounce back and forth between multiple enemies, because the more targets it hits on its path, the higher your total damage. With resources no longer a concern, you can use the skill as often as your speed allows.

Cost, roll range and shield

Without the flail, Blessed Shield costs 20 Wrath per throw, and that cost disappears completely. The damage bonus rolls between 275 and 350%, with Primal Ancient copies bringing the full 350%. Since the skill requires a shield, you wield the flail in your main hand and a shield in your off-hand. Its block chance matters: Blessed Shield also deals 250% of your shield's block chance as Holy damage.

Blessed Shield runes

Unruned, the shield bounces to 3 nearby enemies. Shattering Throw splits it into 3 fragments on impact that deal 170% weapon damage as Holy each, while Combust gives it a 33% chance to explode. Divine Aegis raises your Armor and Life regeneration whenever it hits, and Piercing Shield stops the bouncing but pierces through every enemy instead.

Stats and companions

The flail has a fixed 626–750 Strength and rolls an elemental weapon damage bonus. A socket, Damage %, Attack Speed, Maximum Wrath and Cooldown Reduction are sought-after additions. It is frequently combined with Leoric's Crown, Pauldrons of the Skeleton King, Akkhan's Manacles, Blackthorne's Jousting Mail and Convention of Elements.

According to the flavor text, the flail belonged to Sir Tomas, the Gyrfalcon, who was knighted for his bravery and speed and took the gyrfalcon as his coat of arms.
