The Godsword is a two-handed sword and an extremely powerful piece of equipment that can be found in the God Wars Dungeon. This weapon is dropped in pieces, and players must combine the pieces to form the sword. Furthermore, four hilts corresponding to the gods Saradomin, Zamorak, Armadyl, and Bandos can be attached to unlock different special attacks. It is currently the most powerful weapon, when all factors are taken into account. It requires 75 attack to wield. It can be very useful for Bounty Hunter, Duel Arena, Fight Pits, and Castle Wars. The Godsword is dropped in 3 pieces (Better known as shards 1,2 and 3). Fixing it gives the player 100 experience per two pieces joined (200 experience for the entire sword's completion) and requires 80 smithing. The hilts can freely be added or removed with no level requirement.

[edit] Historical Context
In the means of history the last battle of the God Wars was waged for the control of this particular item. Which ever god could control it may have been able to determine the outcome of the war. No god ever claimed this sword as Guthix awoke from its slumber and brought peace back to the world. Now that recent tectonics in RuneScape have released these monsters once more if the sword falls into one of the gods hands, it could mean the beginning of another imbalance in power therefore possibly leading into another devastating war between gods. It is also said the sword was forged by the near-extinct Icyene.
