See the user build section for builds using this weapon.

Notes

  • The Skana is used by Tyl Regor - the final boss of Uranus.
  • This sword slightly resembles a katana , used by the medieval samurai of the Japanese age.
  • Of all the starter weapons available in the Market, the Skana is the only one that cannot be bought with Credits.

Trivia

    • A theory is that the name "Skana" might be a combination of the words "Space", because of the game being mainly ambiented in it, and "Katana", referencing the Japanese weapon, because of the tenno culture and reverence of the 'old ways'. Both words combined could be the reasoning behind "Skana", Space Katana.
