Effects[]

  • The Attribute boosts from this weapon's unique skill, Oath of Vengeance, is especially useful early on, as it will boost your durability by increasing your Defense and HP, and also increase your Equip Load by roughly 8.0 (about 5.6 if accounting for the 70% threshold for Medium Load) letting you carry it easier.
    • Do keep in mind that while the bonuses to Strength and Dexterity can increase the damage dealt by this weapon's attacks it cannot be used to meet the Attribute requirements as the skill itself is not usable without meeting those requirements.

Notes[]

  • This weapon does not accept weapon buffs.
  • The Grafted Blade Greatsword is one of the nine Legendary Armaments.
  • This is the renowned sword of Castle Morne mentioned by Castellan Edgar. He stresses that this sword must not fall into the hands of the Misbegotten.
  • The fighting lion motif associated with the Golden Lineage appears on the guard, though this detail is difficult to see in-game.
  • While the Dexterity scaling is a good bit stronger than expected it will only exceed the benefits of the Strength scaling when the final softcap of 80 (54 if using both hands) Strength is reached.

Trivia[]

  • This weapon received several buffs in patch 1.04. Its base damage (+0) was increased from 157 to 162 and its guard rating increaed from 64/48/48/48/48/43 to 80/48/48/48/48/53.
  • This is one of the earliest available Colossal Swords or Weapons and most likely the second acquired after the Zweihander, also found on the Weeping Peninsula.
  • Cut content The Chinese and Korean version 1.00 release of the game preserve a very different earlier draft of this item description, roughly translating to "A special greatsword created by joining together the swords of warriors who once served Godfrey. It is imbued with the power of the Rune of Grafting."[1]
