Enhancements by Level

Each upgrade at the Blacksmith raises a copy by one level and unlocks the next enhancement. The levels count from the copy's own level, so a level 9 copy unlocks them at levels 10 to 14. Rarity sets how many upgrades a copy takes: one for common, up to five for legendary.

Lore

The blade is cold to the touch. It also weighs heavily on the mind of whoever holds it. It lies in the cemetery of Lone Thistle, the Revelwood village that was once home to Balthazar, the Alchemist. A villager's note says the sword was cursed. Its last owner was buried still holding it, in a rubble-covered grave under the large dead tree.
