Sword

"A weapon consisting typically of a long, straight or slightly curved, pointed blade having one or two cutting edges and set into a hilt (handle)" - [].

Swords, like axes, are one-handed weapons that deal slashing damage. Swords tend to have higher low-end damage ratings, but lower high-end damage ratings than an axe, however the average damage output is comparible to a similar quality axe (e.g. a sword may do 5-7 damage, whereas an axe of the same quality would do 3-9).

Swords may have have their hilts and/or pommels upgraded to add extra bonuses to the weapon.

Some warrior skills can only be performed when weilding a sword.
