A '''Longsword''' is a one-handed melee [[Weapon]] for the [[Cryoknight]] faction. They have an attack speed of 1.50 seconds and deal exclusively {{plink|Impact|pic=Impact damage icon|size=18px}} damage. All enemies capable of dropping combat equipment have a chance to drop Longswords, provided that the player has progressed through the main story to the point where they have chosen a [[Faction]], as before this point only non-faction equipment can be received.

Players who have chosen the Cryoknight faction are able to receive Longswords in {{Common}}, {{Uncommon}}, {{Rare}}, or {{Epic}} [[Rarity]]. Players who chose the [[Hammermage]] or [[Guardian]] factions will receive Longswords much less frequently, and only in {{Rare}} rarity, as these items are intended for other factions to use with the [[Infusion]] system to make {{Epic}} rarity weapons for their own faction.

Longswords are also able to be crafted by the [[Blacksmith]] profession, at an item level up to the Blacksmith level of the crafter. Different level ranges of Longsword require different variants of the materials, but they all require 4 [[Flantium Ingot]]s.

==Variants==

The visual appearance of a Longsword is dependent only on its level. Longswords crafted by the Blacksmith profession use different variants of the materials for each different visual appearance of the Longsword.

{{Incomplete|The exact damage ranges of weapons are still being investigated}}

All Longswords attack at a speed of 1.50 seconds. They all deal exclusively {{plink|Impact|pic=Impact damage icon|size=18px}} damage. The weapon strength of a Longsword obeys a formula with slight variation:

:<math>\text{Strength} = L + 15\times R + 6 + [0-6] </math>

Where

*<math>L</math> is the Item Level

*<math>R</math> is the Rarity, expressed as number of stars

There is random variation in the stats for a Longsword, determined by the term <math>[0-6]</math>. It is believed that rarity affects the distribution of strength rolls, as {{Common}} items almost always roll 0-2, and higher values have only rarely been recorded.

From this formula it can be seen that each increase in Rarity of a Longsword is equivalent to 15 additional levels. Thus a Longsword at level 0 {{Epic}}, at level 15 {{Rare}}, at level 30 {{Uncommon}}, or at level 45 {{Common}} will all have the same minimum combat strength of '''66'''.

The strongest possible Longsword is a level 500 {{Epic}} Longsword with a maximum strength roll, which has the following stats:
