The Broom (一掃, Issō, lit. "Clean Sweep") is a set of joke Lances that can be wielded by Xaldin in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days.

Design

A Broom "lance" is literally a besom broom. Its shaft is an uneven, brown handle and it lacks a lower blade. Its upper "blade" is the collection of tan bristles, secured by a silver ring.

The Broom's name simply refers to the fact that the "lances" are designed to resemble besom brooms. "Clean Sweep" refers to the fact that brooms are typically used to sweep rooms of debris. Witches are commonly depicted with brooms, using them to fly.

Gameplay

Broom’s normal ground combo starts with a sideways slash using one lance, followed by a downward diagonal slash using the other lance, and ends with a thrust of all six lances forwards at once. The combo can be activated after the second attack, and consists of Xaldin swinging his lances from the same starting point upward to two far points in a "V" formation, followed by a leap and a downward diagonal slash with one lance.

The aerial combo consists of a downward diagonal slash using one lance, followed by a thrust of all six lances forwards at once in a pointed, star-like shape.
