Ghostblade is a unique Ancient Nord Sword found in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. It is one of four unique ghost weapons.

AcquisitionEdit

The Ghostblade can be obtained in the Ansilvund Excavation after defeating Lu'ah Al-Skaven and the ghosts of Fjori and Holgeir during the quest A Love Beyond Death.

EnchantmentEdit

Its enchantment deals three extra points of damage, and ignores armor. In addition, the enchantment has unlimited uses and needs no recharging, although the weapon cannot be disenchanted.

UsefulnessEdit

Ghostblade is the second lightest weapon in the game, beaten by the fork and knife, and it serves well as a backup weapon due to its high damage and armor piercing effect.

SmithingEdit

The Ghostblade can be upgraded with three samples of ectoplasm and the Arcane Blacksmith perk, however it does not benefit from any smithing perks.
