Sword of Salamander

Sword of Salamander is weapon 7 of 37 for the Warrior, and it drops in Atlans, Lost Tower.

Lore

The Sword of Salamander was forged in the heart of a furnace tended by fire salamanders, creatures the ancients tamed to keep their forges burning without coal. The steel kept a reddish glow that does not fade even underwater.

That is why it survives the depths of Atlans, where the Hydra, the map's boss, guards it among sunken treasures. It also falls on the floors of Lost Tower. It is the weapon of a Warrior no longer afraid to leave familiar lands behind.

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.
