What makes the Parvel Greatsword unique
The weapon is a close replica of the Lord of the Rings’ Aragorn’s Sword; therefore, players like you and me would want to grab the Parvel Greatsword early on. It is known for experimenting with Delesian technology. This translates into a weapon that feels both stylish and practical, especially if you favor heavy melee builds. The only downside to the Parvel Greatsword is that it is equippable only on Damian.
Its biggest strength lies in its balanced progression, starting at 15 attack and scaling up to 41, which makes it viable beyond the early game. The critical rate upgrade from Level 2 to Level 3 further enhances its damage output, especially in sustained fights.
Even though it starts with no sockets, the presence of five available slots means you can customize it later depending on your build.
