Ghostblade

Ghostblade is a translucent Ancient Nord Sword given to you by the spirits of Fjori and Holgeir as a reward for freeing them from the control of Lu'ah Al-Skaven, as part of the quest Ansilvund. The weapon is enchanted to do three extra points of damage that ignore the target's armor, without needing to be charged through soul gems. It is also extremely lightweight, and thus requires very little Stamina for power attacks. Tempering Ghostblade requires three samples of ectoplasm, as well as the Arcane Blacksmith perk.

Bugs

• Placing Ghostblade on a weapon stand may cause it to disappear and the weapon stand to become unusable. After placing it on a shelf, it may float around your house with each visit and eventually disappear if not moved back to the shelf.
  • The Unofficial Skyrim Patch, version 2.0.1, fixes this bug.
