✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Cold damage adds a frosty twist to your melee arsenal.
- Unique attacks give the greatsword a distinct playstyle.
- Fresh update (January 2026) means it's likely compatible with current game versions.
⚠️ Cons
- Small following (17 endorsements) — you're an early adopter.
- No screenshots or videos in the description, so you're flying blind on looks.
For players who want a themed legendary weapon with a cold damage gimmick and unique moves. If you're a collector of unique weapons or a fan of Greek mythology, this is a neat addition. Skip if you prefer realistic or lore-friendly gear without elemental flair.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Check your mod manager's preview or load order to ensure the greatsword doesn't conflict with other weapon mods.
- If you're on a modded playthrough, test the unique attacks on a dummy to see how they interact with your build.
- Since the mod is small, consider pairing it with a texture overhaul to make the most of its visual impact.
