The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Hints
Akavari Sunderblade
1 of 5: Sergius Verus in the "Three Brothers Trade Goods" shop in the Imperial City's Market District sells this powerful magic sword.
2 of 5: Using it on an enemy damages his weapon and armor conditions extremely quickly.
3 of 5: That can be *very* useful in tough combats where an enemy is wielding a very powerful weapon. Hit him with the sunderblade a few times to make his equipped weapon unusable, and his armor much less protective.
4 of 5: And don't forget to keep your sunderblade charged. See the general Combat Tips to learn of a good way to arrange that.
5 of 5: TIP: You can get free weapons from summoned creatures (like skeleton heroes and dremora lords) and from corrupted clones created with the Skull of Corruption (see Vaermina's Daedric Shrine Quest). Just hit them several times with the sunderblade before they can vanish, and their weapons will drop to the ground and become permanent. (Note that this will *not* work with Umbra.)
