The Lumine Edge is a melee weapon available to the Vanu Sovereignty. It is unlocked through purchase with Certification Points or Daybreak Cash.

The Lumine Edge is a so-called 'power knife,' similar to the Carver and  Ripper, a typically weaker knife that has access to an alternate fire mode allowing it to deal vastly increased damage while held in-hand.

While held in-hand, switching the fire group of the knife causes a short animation and sound to play, after which a constant and audible humming sound will play. All nearby players can hear this noise. In this mode, the knife deals 900 damage, enough to kill standard Infiltrators in a single hit, and all other infantry with a headshot—thanks to a 2x headshot multiplier.

To quick melee with this weapon, press the Melee Attack hotkey ( by default) while holding any other weapon. To equip this weapon for wielded melee, press the Equip Melee hotkey ( by default).

To activate this weapon's power mode, hold it in-hand and press the Switch Fire Group hotkey ( by default.)

Ribbons and Medals
It is possible to earn both Ribbons and Medals while using the. Each ribbon is a standard reward for achieving a set amount of kills with the knife. Medals are awarded upon reaching kill milestones with the weapon.

History

 * March 30, 2022 Update (The Arsenal Update)
 * Activated knife damage from 1050 to 900
 * Dev Note: Power knives consistently kill with two shots to the body or one shot to the head. This change is meant to dampen the effectiveness of specific setups, and give players more time to react to the burst of damage when the user can't land a headshot.
