About
The Saradomin Godsword is a weapon that first made it's appearance in Runescape. It was a popular weapon for leveling, being both efficient and powerful. It's initial design was to allow for 3 different melee styles; Slash, Stab and Crush.
I decided to create it for Skyrim because I felt the design could fit in well with the game and because I thought it would be fun to create a high quality two-handed sword that people might actually consider using. The Saradomin Godsword aims to be powerful and fun to use, making easy work of low level enemies whilst still holding it's own at later levels.
Both model and textures were created by me using 3ds Max 2011/2014 and Photoshop CS6.
What this mod includes: A unique two-handed sword with a healing special effect.
Location
You will find the Saradomin Godsword at a shrine near Sundered Towers. The sword is in the arms of a Statue, surrounded by Nightshade. Behind there is a secret chest with Monk Robes for additional effect :)
