Lore
A masterpiece painstakingly crafted by Sizlek the Insatiable. Fundamentalist Goblins making dangerous inventions is nothing new, but this sword was designed to channel recklessly powerful currents through its blade. It could be wielded without fear only because a lust for power overcame even terror itself.
The royal connections of this weapon make it a prized collector's item among the nobility of Pywel. Scholars and historians continue to debate the exact circumstances of its creation, but its craftsmanship speaks to an era of great artistry and ambition.
Bloodied Sanctum Boss Drop
The Greedy Lightningblade is not actually sold by a vendor for 174 Silver Coins in the live build. It drops from the Bloodied Sanctum (also written as the Ruined Chapel Blooded Sanctum) mission inside the Hernandian Parish of Solumen. The mission ends in a boss fight against Sisel (sometimes transcribed as Sis Le), the leader of the Fundamentalist Goblins who crafted the weapon. Defeating Sisel awards all three items from the encounter at once: the Greedy Lightningbladethe Goldbranch Plate Crownand a pair of Shadow Gloves.
Full Quest Chain to Unlock the Blooded Sanctum
Reaching the Ruined Chapel mission is not a matter of fast-travelling to Hernand. The encounter is gated behind a long chain of faction missions that spans House Celeste, House Roberts, House Circus, House Alonso, House Felix, House Grace, the Beggars' Alliance, the Goldleaf Merchant Guild, the Scholar Stone Institute, the Powder Forest Guardians, the Kharonso Troll Alliance, and the Valua Fishermen's Guild. The order below reflects a confirmed unlock path from a player who has cleared the weapon drop.
Stage 1: Hernand Bounties and House Roberts
Complete three of the nine outlaw bounties in Hernand for House Celeste.
Do the House Roberts Estate mission in Demeniss.
Do House Roberts Continuing Concern.
Do House Roberts Border from the Sky. This requires Embers of Return (Grounds of the Sunrise) first, because that mission recruits the Greymanes who handle the construction needed for Border from the Sky.
Stage 2: Houses Circus, Alonso, and Celeste
Unlock House Circus and do Lord of Mister Ruins (unlocks House Alonso).
Do House Alonso House of Spearsthen On the Spear Tip Once Againthen Transcendent Structure. If Transcendent Structure does not trigger, fast-travel to force it.

Scholar Stone Institute: complete the Scholar Stone Research Institute mission (some players find this is gated to Chapter 4 or later).

Pricing Clarification
The 174 Silver Coins figure that appears in internal database listings is a nominal value rather than a store price in the live build. In practice, the weapon is only obtainable through the Bloodied Sanctum quest described above. There is no confirmed merchant that sells this sword directly.
Combat Tips
With a built-in Critical Rate bonus, this sword rewards aggressive playstyles. Pairing it with Abyss Cores that further boost critical hit chance can create devastating burst damage during combo chains.
While the base Attack of 10 is modest, one-handed swords compensate with speed and combo potential. Pairing this weapon with a shield provides a balanced offense-and-defense setup, while dual-wielding unlocks additional combo finishers.
The electrical properties of this blade can stagger enemies more easily. Consider using it against armored opponents where the additional shock effect can disrupt their attack patterns.
As a one-handed sword, this weapon can be paired with a shield for defensive play or with another one-handed weapon for dual-wielding. Experiment with different off-hand combinations to find the setup that best suits your combat style.
