A jewelled morningstar, glowing brightly with the light of the dawn. It illuminates the dungeon's recesses, revealing the machinations of those who would prefer to stay invisible. |

Desirability
Eos[1] has a decent base type, an excellent enchantment level, and a powerful brand.
Though the halo provides a handy see invisible effect and makes your enemies easier to hit, it also drastically reduces your Stealth and makes you easier to hit in return. Overall, it's a desirable weapon useful into the end-game.
Tips & Tricks
When Stealth is at a premium (say, for lower-level characters entering a new level), unwield Eos when exploring, and wield when you actually engage in combat.
History
