Zamorak godsword

From the RuneScape Wiki, the wiki for all things RuneScape

A player performing the older version of the Zamorak Godsword special attack.

Zamorak godsword is one of the Godswords. It is created by adding the Zamorak hilt to a completed Godsword blade.

Like all God Swords, it requires 75 attack to wield. It has a special attack called Ice Cleave, which freezes the opponent for 20 seconds, similar to Ice Barrage, and appears to boost accuracy. This drains the special attack bar by 60%, preventing consecutive uses. It is the only Melee weapon that has a "Freeze" effect, making it useful for players that don't train Magic, or have a high enough magic level to cast any advanced Ice spells.

This weapon is very popular in Castle Wars, mainly for its ability to freeze the flag holder when they are wearing Dragonhide or Armadyl armour (to stop from being frozen by Ancient Magic users) which will not be very effective to the melee based godsword, a popular tactic when transporting the flag.

It is also a very popular method for God Wars when battling Commander Zilyana.

Of all the godswords types, the Zamorak Godsword has the least amount of godswords in the game. Due to having the least demand, the Zamorak godsword is the second cheapest godsword in the game after the Bandos godsword. The only reason why the Bandos godsword is cheaper then the Zamorak Godsword is because there is a greater supply of Bandos hilts in the game.

It is not recommended that players train their melee stats with godswords due to their slow attack rate.

Unique to the Zamorak Godsword is that while the other Godswords have a dark tint near the hilt and the tip of the sword the Zamorak Godsword lacks this tint being a full bright silver colour from base to tip.
