To make use of a sword breaker's functionality, the wielder must have a [[SRD:Base Attack Bonus|base attack bonus]] of +1 and be [[SRD:Weapon Categories#Simple, Martial, and Exotic Weapons|proficient]] with the weapon.
When attacked by an opponent within your reach, and that opponent misses, as an [[SRD:Immediate Actions|immediate action]] (that does not provoke an attack of opportunity) you may make an attack roll with the one wielded sword breaker weapon to make a [[SRD:Sunder|sunder]] attempt against your opponent's weapon. If you fail the opposed check for sundering, you are [[SRD:Flat-Footed|flat-footed]] until the start of your turn.
A sword breaker weapon also enables a piercing weapon to make sunder attempts. Proficiently dual-wielding two sword breaker [[SRD:Light Weapon|light weapons]] removes the –4 penalty for sundering with a light weapon.
