Trivia

• Decisive Judgement used the same portrait as  Tranquil Cleave from its introduction in Hotfix 13.1.2 (2014-04-25), until it received its own portrait in Update 14.0 (2014-07-18).
• This mod was previously dropped by Tenno Specter in Solar Rail Conflict missions, until it became unavailable due to the change of the latter mission into PvP. It is now dropped by Grineer Wardens and Heavy Gunners.
• Decisive Judgement appears to be based off of the Kenjutsu style of swordplay.
