Crimson Desert: Weapons

Updated · Patch history

Three weapons have enough notes to discuss, and two of them have their own pages. Frozen Anguish sits in the Spire of Frost, attack 43, five Abyss slots, for Kliff. Fated Shadow is Goyen's one-handed sword, attack 34, three slots. Darkbringer comes out of a skeleton northwest of Pailune or from Ator, and it carries Ator's Orb. I do not have a sourced tier ranking, so the table does not pretend Sword of Starlight or a bow is the winner.
