Sword of Power
Version 0.28: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.
| A mighty sword which rewards the powerful with power and the meek with weakness. Particularly hale users will find that power directed into their foes in the form of devastating, though inaccurate, energy bolts. |
the +5 word of Power
+5 vorpal great sword
Has an HP/270 % chance[1] to fire an inaccurate 1d40 bolt[2] when striking in melee.
Desirability
The sword of Power[3] is a decent weapon for most Long Blades users, who also don't mind losing the shield slot. Meek characters, as the name suggests, should probably stick to some other sword.
History
- Prior to 0.26, the Sword of Power was a +0, unbranded greatsword. Every 10 HP you had increased its enchantment, up to a max of +27.
- In older versions, the Sword of Power's enchantment would vary from -4, -4 to +20, +20, making it range from distinctly bad to still worse than a well-branded triple sword.
