There a quite a few mods for this sword and this is my take on it since I didn't like any of those mods.

My goal was not to make it OP, but at the same time make it more original and interesting to use.

What changed:
  • Removed useless for most classes performance buff.
  • Created new Eldersong effect that adds 2d8 of radiant/necrotic damage if wielded by an elf/drow (1d4 for half-blooded races).
  • Swapped sword visual template to the one with less gold for more balanced appearance (main or visuals versions only).

There is a main version that includes both visuals and stats change and three optional stats only versions (check downloads).

Pick one that you think is most balanced. You may even switch them as you go from +1 to +3.
Additionally visuals only version is also available to combine with any of the 3 or use either of them on its own, it's up to you.

Please bear in mind:
  • You can never get full damage shown on mouse over the sword, as only one bonus can be active at a time and actual bonus damage is only calculated when sword is equipped. To see real damage you need to check your base attack numbers and not the item itself.
  • Only a pure blooded or half blooded elves/drow can get either of those bonuses. Shapeshifting won't help.
  • Weapon description will not mention half-blooded elves, it just works.
