A great serpentine sword
+6, +6 modified great sword (17 damage, -2 accuracy, 160% speed)
Flaming brand
Inflicts rF- on hit
Evil
The fixedart great sword wielded by the unique Pandemonium lord Cerebov. Foes struck by the sword temporarily have their fire resistance reduced by one, which can make even fire-immune enemies vulnerable.
Desirability
As compared to a triple sword of freezing, at high skills this sword will have slightly lower raw damage. However, a larger portion of its damage will be due to the AC-bypassing flaming brand, meaning that this sword's performance will be comparable or even slightly better on average. Still, in general, this sword is more often carried as a prize than actually used, since most characters who can defeat Cerebov already have their endgame weapons.
History
In 0.13 the rF- mechanic was added; before the sword only reduced fire immunity on its own hits. It was also a plain greatsword instead of a slightly enhanced (plus one damage and accuracy) one.
