Desirability
Similar to but somewhat weaker than the zealot's sword, Bloodbane is a very nice weapon if you can overcome its berserkitis. Being undead or worshiping Ashenzari will give you a bit more leeway for using this weapon, and the fact that it doesn't curse itself constantly means you can use it whenever a situation arises in which berserking would actually be useful. Just don't wield it all the time and you'll be fine.
History
- Bloodbane will be removed in 0.25. Its berserking mechanics will be added to the other unrandart demon blade, Leech.
- Prior to 0.18, the forced berserk happened on 9% of attacks.
- Prior to 0.15, the stealth penalty was -20.
- Truly a shapeshifting weapon, Bloodbane was originally a long sword, then a katana (even after katanas were removed in 0.9), and is now a demon blade.
