Default I'm questing for a long sword... yes a long sword... not a fraudulent piece of metal!

Hi. Ever since I started playing GW with my R I've always thought long swords looked amazingly cool and uber. I'm now a W/Mo and have been searching for one since the word go.

Now here's my problem; I can't find a long sword. Well not a proper one... I have loads that are called long swords visually they are other swords... I've visted all the Collector's that have long swords but to no avail.

Can someone please send me in the direction where I'll be able to find a long sword... or a place where they drop more frequently than others?

Thanks,

-Adam

Just wondering how far you are into the game. The griffons in my experience dropped them with some frequency (actually where I got my current longsword).

And I agree, they're really cool looking.

Adambomb,

There is a weapons smith in Draknor's Forge. He will craft you a Long Sword 15>50 for 5k + materials. I am not sure if this is a weapon that you can add upgrades to or not. If so, then this will serve you quite well.

HTH

Thanks for the replies!

I would buy one from the sell forum but as we all know, gold doesn't grow on trees, and if it did people wouldn't need to sell stuff to get money.

I'm currently at Augrey and am henching my way to Ascension. Iceman, the long sword at Droks isn't the one I'm looking for but thanks anyway.

I'll take some henchies and go kill some Griffons and see if I can't find a long sword. And when I'm lvl20 I'll go solo farm Griffon's

Thanks,

-Adam

The thing I have noticed with long swords....If you change the hilt on it..let's say you upgrade it to a zealous...it changes the look of the sword...It'll still called a long sword..but it looks like a short sword. That's what happened to me. Unless of course you're looking for the one from pre which looks like a crystalline. In which case I don't know where you can get another one. Don't know if this helps you or not...
