Corrosive Flail is a rare +1 Flail that grants a special weapon action, Corrosive Strike.
Acid was long ago abandoned by assassins, who found poison much more reliable in spiking their target's drinks. The acid kept melting the chalices.

Notes
Regarding Tenacity:
- If a weapon action misses, using Tenacity does not trigger its effects.
- As Tenacity deals weapon damage even if an attack misses, it can trigger many on-hit effects from equipment. For example, from the Gloves of Power, the Callous Glow Ring, weapon coatings, or any infusion from the Ring of Elemental Infusion.
Regarding Corrosive Strike:
- This action is actually an AoE attack. After striking the main target, an additional attack is made against every creature and object within the 1.5 m (5 ft) surface radius around that target, including allies. Additional acid pools are then spawned for each creature and object struck this way.
Bugs
- When dual-wielding a flail or morningstar with a non-Tenacity weapon using the Dual Wielder feat, Tenacity can be triggered by missing an attack with the non-Tenacity weapon, dealing Bludgeoning damage regardless of the weapon used.
- Some non-Tenacity weapons can trigger their on-hit effects via Tenacity as well, such as the Ritual Dagger and Loviatar's Scourge.
Regarding Tenacity:
- As Horde Breaker (Melee) rolls invisible, zero-damage weapon attacks against all enemies in the Horde Breaker area of effect, Tenacity can be prompted to trigger against them even if the first attack hits. It is therefore possible to score 2 hits in one attack: the full attack against the original Horde Breaker target and a Tenacity hit against another target.
