| − | 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 *Silence, while always potentially problematic, may be 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.

| |
| − | *Prior to [[0.33]], the sword of the Doom Knight had -Cast, which prevented spellcasting entirely. This was replaced by *Silence.
| |
| − | *The sword of the Doom Knight was re-added in [[0.32]] with a new brand.
| |
| − | *In [[0.19]], this great sword was removed. The old version had the [[pain brand]] and lacked ^Drain.
