I still have no idea what starfang is after a full playthrough never using it...

Do you have it? it should be obvious what it is.

Yeah I have it, that's why I have no idea what it is. You sir, are a genius.

Ohh, well I am tired and wrote that wrong.

Only for warriors and the Keening Blade is comparable. Rogues do better with daggers. Arcane Warriors get more mileage out of Spellweaver than Starfang.

wow,your purdy...

[Wolfwing0100]

Well...... I disagree and have to say the Black Knight sword is better.

[Verloren03]

Despite having completed Warden's Keep I never got the cutscene to get this sword. Don't know if it bugged out or what but I was pretty disappointed. I ended up using the Summer Sword from the Howe's body guard for the rest of the game.

After playing 48 hours and completing Wardens Keep I have not come across the random meteor encounter, am I doing something wrong?

The meteor cutscene is a random battle while travelling around in the main map, the cutscene is basically a "Superman" origin rip-off.



Starfang for now is the best sword in game for those who have the warden's keep DLC. I heard that RTO's blades are better though but I'm unsure of that until the RTO is out.

Unfortunately, I have completed all of the main quests and just have side quests to complete before ending the game, I am merely trying to get the most out of the game and would like my characters to have the best arsenal possible.

Isn't this a spoiler?



Anyway, for me the best sword against the Darkspawn is Ageless. Starfang is the best sword vs non-darkspawn.

No you're not. It's a random encounter and it took me a while to get it too. This is what you do (if your playing PC); set dragonage to the smallest resolution and don't play fullscreen. Then set up a playlist of your favorite series (how I met your mother or something) and watch the series while casually going all over the map.

Took me about 30 mins!

And BTW 1h > 2h by miles.

I generally give Alistair enough strength to get massive armor with items and then put everything in dex. Of course this tends to be my general strategy with any character using either sword and shield or dual wielding (since a high defense is the way to make rogues and warriors awesome). So Rose's Thorn >Starfang.

[Treason1]

Hmm..I've been fortunate, in getting the random event to get the material for it, then. For the last three playthroughs, I've managed to get it while going back and forth from Honnelath, before and after getting Shale, right after Lothering. Hadn't even cleared out the Peak, yet.



Equipped on Alistair, as a 1h, he's eventually doing 60-70 damage on average, right around the time he's first able to equip it. As a 2h on Sten, near the end of the game, he's doing 100 and more per hit.

[tinman0925]

I didn't even know it existed and I stumbled on it after completing the game. I was just going back and forth from Honnelath to Wardens keep trying pick up some random fights and I got the cut scene with the meteor ...............if I could only have such dumb luck in my real life .

[Mechnic]

I like the Madrassa 2h with 2 blades does alot of damage and is a tier 7.

[QuiTamGogh]

I disagree.  I think Duncan's Sword is now the best sword in the game.  Either that or Maric's Blade.

Starfang is considerbably better against Darkspawn than Ageless.

Half of Ageless's abilities  aren't even implemented  ( it does not weaken darkspawn, nor does it  cause "messy kills".)  moreover, 90% of the time  it won't even have rune-slots.

That leaves Ageless with a grand total of *one* special property vs. Darkspawn:  +4 damage.  Which is nothing compared to Starfang, who's base damage is not only higher, but it also  has 3 rune slots, which you could  add the +10 damage to Darkspawn rune to...

i never gave alistair a 2H weapon, he's always on shields when i play

I always get the single-handed Starfang so that Alistair can use it with a shield.  There's a better 2H sword in the mages tower, imo anyway.

Yusaris?

Lets compare Yusaris with Starfang.

Yusaris
-Damage: 16.50
-Critical Chance: 2.25%
-Armor Penetration: 5.25
-STR Modifier: 1.10
-Rune Slots: 2

Effects:
+10 damage vs. Dragons
+20% fire resistance



Starfang
-Damage: 18.70
-Critical Chance: 2.55%
-Armor Penetration:  6.30
-STR modifier: 1.10
-Rune Slots: 3

Effects:
+3 Strength
+2.5 Armor Penetration
+8 Attack


^Its not even close, is it.

Keening Blade goes to Alistair due to its 'warrior' restriction.
Starfang and Topsider's Honor go to my main character, a dual weapon rogue.

Asala has by far the most artistic shape for a weapon in the whole game imho.

[Sarevok Anchev]

Keening Blade has better/more useful stats than 1h Starfang; but its only for Warriors.



2h Starfang is the best SWORD, but not the best TWOHANDED WEAPON.

The Chasing Great Maul (dunno if thats the name of the epic version ^^) is far superior.

Sten allways gets that sword in my playthrough.  Cuase he's good like that.  I done both 1h and 2h of the sword, and enjoyed it.  Even gave it to support chars (Alister) and worked with other weapons/skils.  It's a realy good sword when you finaly get it and one you better have in your groupe.

[Shawntor]

I thought this was a "no spoiler" area of the forums.





Guess I was wrong.

[Ponce de Leon]

Don't know exactly, but as a 2 handed weapon, the great maul is much, much, much better :

+5 Damage

+2.5 Armor Penetration

+0.5 Combat Stamina Regeneration

+75 Stamina

Sure, the critical chance is almost 0, but I don't care about criticals, when I can make solid 120+ damage hits and have tons of stamina.

As a two handed sword, as Sarevok mentioned, perhaps, the two two handed swords that are good in the game being either Yusaris or Ageless.

As for one handed. I have no idea. Keening blade and Topsider's honor are both good, as for Starfang, as far as I can see, deals more damage. But I can't say. I don't have Warden's keep either way, so no, for me, starfang is not the best sword in the game
