Icy Dragon Sword

Description
The Icy Dragon Sword (commonly abbreviated to "IDS"), like its cousin the Fiery Dragon Sword, is a popular sword that is prized for its style. It has a unique look, with its frosty blade (only two twisted "filaments" as a solid core) coming out of the dragon's mouth that acts as the hilt.

All Icy Dragon Swords are blue by default and carry an Icy Sword Hilt that can be salvaged (with an Expert Salvage Kit), but not replaced by any other Sword Hilt.

Weapon Stats
Sword
 * Cold damage: 15-22 (req. 9 Swordsmanship)
 * Damage +15% (while Health is above 50%)



Icy Dragon Swords always come with the same stats. However, they can be upgraded with a sword pommel to give them an additional bonus.

Location
The Icy Dragon Sword can only be found as a drop from Ice Imps in the ice caves in the eastern part of Mineral Springs (see map below). Even then, such a drop is not guaranteed.

Note: Make sure none of the party members has Defend Droknar's Forge active on his Quest Log, because in this case the Ice Imps will not show up.



The only alternative is to buy the sword from a fellow player. To purchase this sword, the easiest place to find it on sale is in the Granite Citadel, which is the starting point for IDS farming runs.

Prices for the sword started as high at 100k+ when the IDS first appeared, but dropped rapidly since then.

Dye
Applying dye to an Icy Dragon Sword affects the hilt. Dyes cannot change the color of the flame.
