Desirability

The glaive of prune is a straightforward enough artefact: a +12 glaive of chopping. The "prune curse" on this weapon has no actual in-game effect, other than making Zin hate it. Most characters who happen to use polearms can benefit from it for most of the game; a +12 glaive of chopping is a perfectly sufficient weapon to win the game with, as a bardiche may require too much skill to use effectively.

History

Prior to 0.15, the glaive of Prune had a +4,+12 enchantment.
