Korasi's sword



Korasi's sword is a reward item from the grandmaster quest The Void Stares Back, which was released on 6 October 2010. It was first released with Quiet Before the Swarm but was only used when the player was inside Korasi's mind.

If lost during the battle against the pest queen, it can be reobtained by speaking to Korasi or Jessika, who is injured and lying near the entrance. During the quest the sword cannot be alched or kept upon death. After completing the quest, the player can buy it back from Commander Tyr for 250k coins.

Korasi's sword's special attack, Disrupt, uses a magic-based attack that never misses or fails, draining 60% of the special attack bar and granting magic experience, and will give defense experience if defensive casting is turned on in the spellbook. There are two variants of the special attack, depending on whether the player is in single-way or multi-way combat. When attacking in single-way combat, the damage will deal anything between 50 to 150% of your max hit. When Disrupt is used in multi-way combat, it can hit up to three targets in a chain reaction. After the initial hit, further subsequent hits are halved from the previous amount.

The second variant of Disrupt is exclusive to The Void Stares Back quest. During the battle with the Pest Queen, the special attack can be activated at a cost of 15% of the special attack bar. However, it does not hit multiple targets during the quest. Disrupt must be used against the Pest Queen to deactivate her 500+ damage attack.



Trivia

 * Players should note that in bounty (+1 item) worlds; Korasi's sword protects over weapons like the Abyssal whip and Dragon claws.
 * Due to its Strength bonus, this sword is now the second strongest non-degradable one-handed stab weapon, beating the previous holder of the title, the Leaf-bladed sword, by 20 points. The Dragon longsword is still the strongest one-handed stab weapon. The Leaf-bladed sword is still the most accurate one-handed stab weapon, although it has no special attack.
 * When combined with a Rune defender, the sword's strength bonus equals that of the Zamorakian spear, while its stab attack is only 5 less than the spear's. This, along with its special attack (which can hit well and never misses), may make it a useful, cheap alternative to the spear for stabbing.
 * This weapon's special attack can multi-target a medium sized range area.
 * The stats are comparable to the Dragon longsword but is one game tick faster, like the Dragon scimitar.
 * This weapon has the same defense bonus as all scimitars.
 * The Special Attack does not work while attacking the Penance fighters and Rangers in Barbarian Assault. It also does not work on Animated armour and Cyclopes in the Warrior's Guild.
 * There was a glitch where if a player was in Korasi's mind, they could exit it with the sword. However this sword had no stats. This has since been fixed.
