Weapon • Warrior

Brilliant Sword

Brilliant Sword is weapon 33 of 37 for the Warrior, and it drops in Old Kethotum, Burning Kethotum, Kanturu Underground.

Lore

The Brilliant Sword shines even in the deepest dark. It was cut like a jewel rather than forged like a sword, by artisans who worked crystals found beneath Kanturu. Every facet of the blade throws light back in a different color.

In the Continent's darkest lands, it is both beacon and weapon for the Warrior. It falls from the Old Crimson Harpy, boss of Old Kethotum, and from the hordes of Burning Kethotum and Kanturu Underground.

Forging and refining

At the Blacksmith, Upgrade tab, the item goes from +0 to +6 with Jewel of Bless (PT) (always succeeds) and from +6 to +15 with Jewel of Soul (the chance drops at each level; on failure it loses 1 level, never below +6). Each + multiplies the whole piece (+15 makes it 3.23 times stronger). From +16 to +25 is the Ancestral Upgrade (PT), which burns Ancient items. In the Migrate tab, the whole + carries over to the Nightmare or Godlike version of the same item.
