Bandos godsword
Melee WeaponSpecial route Late mid game Optional Locked
Warstrike drains Defence by the damage dealt — the defence-reduction tool for very high-HP bosses.
Requirements
- 75 Attack ? Cannot be verified Look up an RSN to have this checked against the Hiscores automatically.
- God Wars Dungeon ○ Not completed
Readiness: 25%.
Status
Locked
The Hiscores can't see items, equipment or bank, so item ownership is yours to tick.
Prerequisites still outstanding: God Wars Dungeon
How to obtain
Combine — Bandos hilt (General Graardor) + a godsword blade from three shards
Why it matters
No longer the automatic second special-attack weapon: an elder maul or a dragon warhammer covers defence reduction more cheaply on most targets.
Where it sits
Upgrades from: Dragon warhammer
Equally valid alternatives: Voidwaker — Ironman progression is not a single line; pick the one that fits your account.
