Sword
A sword is a one-handed melee weapon that can require investment in the Swordsmanship or Expertise (in case of the Anniversary Sword "Prominence") attribute, and has a maximum damage range of 15-22 slashing damage (with critical hits reaching 31 damage). It is one of the three preferred weapons of Warriors.

- 2 Fiery Dragon Swords, Fiery Gladius, and Fiery Embersteel Blades inflict fire damage and will not accept prefix upgrades.
- 3 Icy Dragon Swords inflict cold damage and will not accept prefix upgrades.
- 4 Jitte inflict blunt damage.
- 5 Vampiric Dragon Swords come equipped with a Vampiric Sword Hilt and will not accept prefix upgrades.
- 6 Sword is not available as a drop.
- 7 Sword has no attribute requirement and is not maxed.

Notes[edit]
- Deadly Riposte, Hundred Blades, and Riposte are the only non-Sword attack skills that require a sword to be equipped.
