Lightning Scepter
Lightning Scepter is weapon 21 of 23 for the Dark Lord, and it drops in Gray Aida, Old Kethotum, Burning Kethotum, Kanturu Underground, Ignis Volcano.
Lore
The Lightning Scepter was left atop a watchtower through an entire night of storm until a bolt of lightning chose it. Ever since, small sparks run along the shaft whenever its bearer gives an order aloud.
It is the scepter of a Dark Lord whose command lands like thunder. It drops from the Gray Witch Queen in Gray Aida and from the bosses of Old Kethotum and Burning Kethotum, and it appears in Kanturu Underground and the Ignis Volcano.

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.
