| − | The '''sword of the Doom Knight''' has a good enchantment level and decent base type, but is often outclassed by mundane [[triple sword]]s of [[flaming]] or [[freezing]]. The additional properties of this weapon are iffy - Will+ is alright, ^Drain is not great, and -Cast can range from ignorable to deal-breaking, depending on your character's game plan. Since the Doom brand's output is unaffected by the damage of your hits (it can trigger even on hits that deal no damage), having a higher damage rating is a bad return on investment for this weapon. Against some of the beefier enemies, [[orbs of fire]] and [[juggernaut]]s, this can do up to 20 damage per hit. Against [[iron golem]]s, upwards of 40. Against [[Antaeus]], the healthiest enemy, it can do a whopping 90 damage per hit. Ultimately, it is up to the user to decide if they want to do variable (usually low) extra damage against every target, or use a weapon with a better base type and brand to do more damage that may potentially be resisted by some enemies.
