2 + 1/2(Bonus Damage + Potency)
- Upgraded damage =
2 + (Bonus Damage + Potency)
- Upgraded damage =
- Bonus damage and potency are both rounded down before being summed

Tips
- Broadswipes is widely regarded as the strongest ability for high-level warriors. Stack enough Bonus Damage and Potency and it can become mass-murdering.
- Combine with Long Reach and/or spears to increase the number of targets within range. A spear will increase the range of Broadswipes attacks even if it is not used for the primary attack.
- Most melee attacks and ranged theme attacks trigger Broadswipes, including single-action attacks like Sting and swift-action attacks like Wolf Bite (but not Backslam or Shieldshear). A warrior with Broadswipes should ideally have the capability to perform at least two Broadswipe-triggering actions each turn.
- Hitting an enemy outside of melee range with a ranged theme attack will trigger Broadswipes, but the Broadswipes attacks will only hit enemies in melee range.
- Frenzy triggers Broadswipes three times with one action.
- Applies some weapon effects (e.g. poison or extra damage to specific enemies) to all targets.
