Sword of Kings: Difference between revisions

The '''Sword of Kings''' is a legendary weapon reserved only for those chosen by the Gods. It would become known as [[Erdrick's Sword]] after the [[Hero (Dragon Quest III)|Hero's]] adventure in [[Alefgard]], passed down through the lineage of the legendary Hero as part of his [[Erdrick Equipment|heraldry]].  

The Dread Fiend [[Zoma]] feared the sword being used against him and destroyed it prior to the game's events, though it took him three years to do so. A [[Jipangese swordsmith]] of superlative skill is able to restore it to its former glory, but the player must first sell him the chunk of [[orichalcum|orichalcum]] found in [[Damdara]] before he can begin. The Sword of Kings increases the {{Hero 3}}'s attack by +120 and will generate an earthshaking [[Kaswoosh|thunderclap]] when used as an item in battle.

 

The requirements to obtaining the Sword of Kings is different from the original game. To obtain the legendary blade, the player must first visit a [[Jipang]] swordsmith in [[Kol]]. The player must then go to the house of a researcher of Golems in Cantlin to acquire the sundered blade, finding a chunk of orichalcum in Damdara in the stables, and acquiring the swordsmith's [[Forging Hammer]] after speaking with his sister. After acquiring all of the items above, go back to the swordsmith in Kol and he will repair the fabled sword to its former glory.

 

|location=[[Hotto]], act 3

The Sword of Kings is available in the post-game. In [[Hotto]], there is a blacksmith that wishes to forge the sword, and needs [[Orichalcum]] to do so. Once given the material, the blacksmith starts forging the sword and asks the player to return later (one in-game day) for it. The Sword of Kings will then become available in the [[item shop]]. That's can be repeated any time the party have a piece of Orichalcum.
