The Dancing Breeze is one of the Glaive Weapons in Baldur's Gate 3. The Dancing Breeze is an enchanted glaive that lets you hit in an AOE around you using an action. In BG3, each type of weapon has different ranges, damages, and other features (Finesse, Versatile, Dippable, etc.). Characters need to master certain Proficiency before using a weapon, and sometimes gain special Actions while holding it.
Tiny specks of blood are fused into the blade, as if the glaive is feeding on them.

This weapon shines with DEX based Hunter Ranger with GWM feat (if you want him to be versatile ranged and melee wise).

When used with a rogue that learns glaive prof from multiclassing or weapon master feats there is no sneak attack animation for this weapon so the game will just freeze when trying. However, you can put on reaction-sneak attack and just get sneak attack damage with a normal attack. Which is a little lamer but works, I guess.

I like this one a lot on Minsc. He comes with much higher dex than str and finesse melee weapons with access to cleave are rare to come by. The extra reach is the cherry on top.
Fun thing about rogues: you can get sneak attack twice per round if you fulfill the requirements for a sneak attack while using a reaction on someone else's turn.
Well, here's a weapon that lets you do exactly that. If you run the tried and true sentinel + polearm master combo, you will be able to sneak attack anyone who procs the polearm master opportunity attack, and as a bonus the additional attack reaction sentinel gives you when an ally is attacked also will let you apply sneak attack because that means the enemy is threatened by that same ally they are attacking.
Using this build you can create a rogue that only wields this single weapon and uses their bonus actions for either the polearm master attack or a great weapon master bonus attack. My recommendation is to take a githyanki character for the medium armor bonus and grab all four feats in weapon master (glaive + your ranged weapons of choice) at 4, sentinel at 8, polearm master at 10, and great weapon master at 12. Throw in some critical hit reducing bonuses and you can use advantage to crit roughly half the time with two sneak attacks per round, all while still having the sentinel + polearm master crowd control potential.
This weapon's great.
