The soulflame horn is a great idea! It's a nifty piece of kit for team bossing. However I do see it sliding into being a rarely used item or very cheap bit of kit due to the sacrifice of an inventory slot.
My suggestion, make it a 3-tick melee weapon. It's not smacking big numbers with those stats anyways, but will increase it's utility in cases where 3-tick weapons are useful such as TOB nylo room and Judge of Yama.

It seems like in production you can either make content too good and nerf it, or make it underwhelming and then buff it. It does feel like the horn was in the second category, doesnt helm that it seems to have broken claws, because it was made to not work with them, which spaghettied the code

👎 as that's just a completely different weapon
Has some discussion on if this should work with claws which IMO is the more interesting question ( / buff the special attack in some way)

How is it a different weapon? The spec is the same, the only difference is changing it from a 5 tick weapon to a 3 tick weapon. It increases utility while still able to do what it was intended.

it's a completely different weapon design, with completely different aesthetics. Nothing about the soulflame horn reads "3 tick weapon", or even that you should smack things with it at all
"both would be good in ToB" is not great reasoning or design for a weapon

plus the swift blade & ham joint are reasonably cool expensive niche items, and this would mostly invalidate them. Even if we do get an actually good 3 tick melee weapon in the future at least that will be its main selling point
swift blade does read as a 3 tick weapon with its name
technically yeah you can smack things with it... but why would you do that? it would look silly

Swift blade and ham joint will still be useful for those who aren't bringing in a Soulflame horn or can't afford one.

because smacking things with a ham joint doesn't look silly.
