Below are tables that explain most of the important facts about swords, except two - where they're sold and how much they cost. That'll be added later. I have included information on swords that don't actually occur in the Asherah .dir but are in the default FSO .dir. The reason is that a lot of players have those default FSO .dir files and are aware that those swords exist. Often the swords in question were only partly programmed in. We acknowledge they exist, but if we don't have it, we don't have it. The ones that don't exist are designated with an asterisk (*).
In addition, some of the swords listed are unique to Asherah and you will not find them in the FSO .dir.
Also please note that these are the "official" attack powers listed in the .dir. In tests, we have found that they may give more. For two examples (the Beta and Gamma Swords), please see our
Donations Page.
Two tables are listed below. The first contains all swords in alphabetical order. The second shows them in order of attack power. If you find errors, omissions or want to comment, please go to our private forum and start a thread, if there isn't one already.
