Vaal Cleave is a Vaal melee attack that deals damage with all equipped weapons to enemies in a 180 degree arc in front of the player. When dual wielding, equipment requirement applies to both weapons, and each weapon does reduced damage. Requires an axe, sword, two-handed axe, or two-handed sword.
The skill cleaves the area in front of the user after a small delay. If a rare or unique enemy is killed, this skill grants a temporary buff to CleaveCleaveAttack, AoE, Physical, Melee

When you Kill a Rare monster, you gain its Modifiers for 60 seconds"A man's soul rules from a cavern of bone, learns and
judges through flesh-born windows. The heart is meat.
The head is where the Man is."
- Lavianga, Advisor to Kaom. Unique monster modifiers, (such as those on metamorphs and some bosses) and magic monsters' modifiers, are not stolen by Vaal Cleave.
Skill functions and interactions
- Attack Speed: When dual wielding attack speed is averaged between the two weapons.
- Dual Wielding:
- If the player's weapons have different critical strike chance values, it is possible for one weapon to get a critical strike when the other doesn't. It is also possible to miss with only one of the weapons swung, if the player's main hand accuracy differs from their off-hand accuracy. The decrease in damage per-weapon while dual wielding is multiplicative and applies to all damage bonuses (for example, mods that add physical damage to attacks).
- Two hits are calculated separately (one from each weapon) and then combined into one unique hit/stack (for the purposes of damaging ailments).
- Both the Cleave buff and the monster modifiers steal duration can be scaled with modifiers to duration, at the cost of increasing Soul Gain Prevention.
- In order to grant the buff and steal modifiers, the killing blow must be directly dealt by a hit of Vaal Cleave - monsters dying to other effects/ailments such as ignite, poison, or bleed, even if applied by Vaal Cleave, will not grant the buff. However, culling strike kills applied by Vaal Cleave will count, even if the culling strike threshold exceeds Vaal Cleave's (such as from slayer's 20% culling strike). This prevents culling strike from interfering with getting the killing blow.
- Unlike some other forms of temporary monster mod stealing (such as Behead SupportBehead SupportSupport, Melee, Attack, Strike

Killing Blows from Supported Strike Skills with Melee Weapons against Rare Monsters grant one of their Modifiers for 20 seconds

Right click to remove from a socket.), multiple sets of modifiers can be stolen from multiple rares if killed by Vaal Cleave, even if they're killed with the same use of Vaal Cleave - this naturally makes Vaal Cleave (and by extension, the player) more powerful the more Vaal Cleave is used to kill rares, and the more rare-dense the map is.
