Type(s) Staff First game Heroes

Serpentine Staff (Japanese: 蛇の杖 snake staff) is a weapon skill in the staff category which debuted in Fire Emblem Heroes. Serpentine Staff prevents the foe from recovering HP between the start of combat and the end of its following action, then deals additional damage to the foe and nearby enemies while extending the healing-denying effect to those nearby enemies.
