Headman's Sword is a two-handed sword base type.

It is one of the three basetypes that have the same 2D art. The other two are Lua error: Error: invalid field alias "items._pageName"; aliases cannot contain dots or quotes.. and Lua error: Error: invalid field alias "items._pageName"; aliases cannot contain dots or quotes...

Headman's Sword is the one of the two end-game two-hand sword base with the +# to Accuracy Rating implicit. The other base is Lua error: Error: invalid field alias "items._pageName"; aliases cannot contain dots or quotes... Legacy Lua error: Error: invalid field alias "items._pageName"; aliases cannot contain dots or quotes.. and Lua error: Error: invalid field alias "items._pageName"; aliases cannot contain dots or quotes.. also have this implicit.

Both Headman's Sword and Vaal Greatsword has the same attack per second and critical strike chance. But the implicit value of Headman's Sword as well as base damage are inferior.

Version history[]

Version Changes
3.11.0

We've reviewed all Two-Handed weapon basetypes and have adjusted their attack damage, speed and implicits, with the goal of giving Two-Handed weapon builds a different feel to their dual-wield and one-handed counterparts, and to ensure that the damage you gain by using a Two-Hander made up for the lack of block and slower attack speed. All Two-Handed weapons have had their base damage increased by at least 15%, with axes in particular gaining even more damage

  • (Not in patch note) Damage increased to 55-128.[1] (up from 47-109)
2.6.0
  • Implicit mod changed to +400 to accuracy rating (previously 18% increased Accuracy Rating).
  • Attack speed increased to 1.3 attacks per second (up from 1.2).
  • Damage reduced to 47-109 (down from 52-122).
Before 0.10.0
  • Introduced to the game.

Notes[]

  1. Using a Lua error: Error: invalid field alias "items._pageName"; aliases cannot contain dots or quotes.. on a legacy Headman's Sword with the implicit modifier 18% increased Global Accuracy Rating will increase the value of that modifier to 40%.
