Double-Beat Rune

The Double-Beat Rune (かえし刃の紋章, Kaeshiha no Monshō, Barbed Blade Rune) is a rune which appears in Suikoden and Suikoden II.

Information
The Double-Beat Rune increases the speed at which the bearer's weapon can strike their opponent, allowing them to hit twice in a single attack. This speed does make the bearer take more damage should they be successfully countered, however. This very powerful ability makes it a very precious rune for warriors.
