Corrupt dragon longsword

Beta

The Corrupt dragon longsword was released on 15 October 2008 along with the PvP worlds. It is the strongest longsword available to Free-to-play, but it crumbles to dust after 30 minutes of wielding. It requires 60 Attack to wield.

Players can obtain this item either by trading with another player, or by receiving it as a very rare drop from killing Revenants or the Chaos Elemental.

When a player is killed with the degraded version of this weapon, roughly half of the Grand Exchange market price is dropped instead of the longsword. It's a good method to get a partial refund of the weapon's price as you cannot trade the degraded version. (e.g. if the market price was 1.3 million coins, a person who killed another player with the degraded version would receive around 600,000 - 700,000 coins)

The corrupt dragon longsword does not require completion of the Lost City quest to wield.

Warning: Once you wield this item for longer than a few seconds, it will have the word (deg) added to its name and it becomes untradeable. Using this item in combat adds the (deg) to its name almost instantly, also rendering it untradeable.

The corrupt dragon longsword is the third most expensive corrupt dragon weapon, ahead of the Corrupt dragon spear, but behind the Corrupt dragon scimitar and Corrupt dragon battleaxe.


 * As 30 minutes contains 3000 ticks, you are able to hit 600 hits with this sword before it crumbles into dust. Thus, each hit landed using this longsword is worth approximately 0 coins.

Trivia

 * Although the regular Dragon Longsword was changed on 28 July 2009, the corrupt version was not changed until later. The current version is now almost identical to the non-corrupt version except it is darker.
 * The Grand Exchange price for this longsword was approximately 100,000 coins when it was released.
 * The Corrupt Dragon longsword is much more expensive than it's non-corrupt counterpart, due to the high demand and rarity of this becoming a drop.
