Revision 5

Overview

The Sydmon Longsword is a two-handed weapon in Crimson Desert from the Sydmon line of equipment. The Sydmon brand appears across multiple weapon categories in the game, including the Sydmon Spear and Sydmon Greataxe, representing a consistent tier of craftsmanship associated with the Sydmon region.

With 20 base attack power and no secondary stat bonuses, the Sydmon Longsword ties the Dewhaven Longsword as the most powerful standard-issue greatsword in terms of raw damage. The weapon focuses entirely on hitting hard with every swing rather than relying on critical hits or attack speed modifiers for its damage output. This makes it an excellent choice for players who prefer predictable, high-damage gameplay.

How to Obtain

The Sydmon Longsword can be crafted at a Blacksmith after learning the recipe from the Two Handed Weapons of the World Vol. 2 crafting manual. This manual can be found while exploring Pywel or purchased from certain merchants. The weapon may also appear as random world loot in the open world.

Crafting materials:

Abyss Gears

The five Abyss Gear slots on the Sydmon Longsword are especially valuable because the weapon has no built-in secondary stats. Every slot can be used to shore up a weakness or amplify a strength. Players looking for a well-rounded setup might slot a mix of critical rate and attack power cores, while those who want maximum raw damage can stack five attack-boosting cores on top of the already high 20 base.

Combat Notes

The Sydmon Longsword performs identically to the Dewhaven Longsword in terms of raw stats: both offer 20 attack with no secondary bonuses. The choice between them comes down to which crafting manual and materials a player encounters first during their exploration of Pywel. Both weapons use the same greatsword moveset, with wide sweeping arcs that excel at hitting multiple targets.

Characters who can wield greatswords, including Kliff and Damiane, benefit from the high stagger pressure these weapons provide. Against shielded enemies and tough bosses, the Sydmon Longsword's 20 attack base translates to faster guard breaks and shorter fights compared to lower-attack alternatives.

Tips

• If you find both the Sydmon and Dewhaven Longswords, keep whichever one has more refinement levels invested. Their stats are identical, so refinement progress is the tiebreaker.

• The high base attack pairs well with elemental enhancements that deal bonus damage per hit, since each swing already hits hard before the elemental effect applies.

• Use this weapon's stagger power to create openings for companion characters to follow up with their own combos during group combat encounters.
