 +<fs:24px><fc #FFBA5A>**Glaives are versatile and deadly throwing weapons that bring both finesse and power to the battlefield. 
 +These bladed discs can be used in close combat to slice through enemies or thrown to deal significant 
 +damage from a distance. The glaive can be charged for even more devastating throws and can return to the Warframe's hand, 
 +allowing for continuous combat flow. Glaives often have a high critical chance and status effects, 
 +making them a favorite choice for Tenno who enjoy a mix of melee and ranged combat. Whether 
 +cutting down foes in tight corridors or executing precise throws from afar, glaives add a dynamic 
 +element to Warframe's rich arsenal.**</fc></fs>
