The Purge in The Blood of Dawnwalker: Stats and How to Get It

The Purge — “A truly magnificent weapon,” per the flavor text — is the documented legendary with two independent acquisition paths, which makes it either the most expensive or the most earned sword in the set, depending on your route.

What Are The Purge’s Stats?

Its four effects, quoted from Fextralife:

• Health Amount Multiplier: +15%
• Attack Stamina Cost Multiplier: −15%
• Sword Skill Cooldown Multiplier: −5%
• Omniblock Stamina Cost Multiplier: −12%

How Do You Get It?

The two sources document two different routes:

• Buy it: Fextralife states The Purge “can be purchased for 3,750 Denarius from the Silver Trader in Svartrau City.”
• Earn it: IGN’s legendary equipment list says to reach Infamy level 6 to trigger headhunters, then “loot from a mercenary miniboss in the swamps east of Briar Sloughs.”

Note the Infamy interaction: PowerPyx’s trophy roadmap warns that certain vendor-based trophies (Selfish, Smuggler) must be done before Infamy 9 — if you are running an Infamy build anyway for the headhunter drop, the trophy timing and the gear route plan together inside the 30-day time system.

Who Should Use The Purge?

The +15% health amount rider is the differentiator — no other documented sword touches your health pool. Paired with −15% attack stamina and −12% omniblock stamina, it suits a face-tank sword style that stands in melee range and trades, rather than the parry discipline of The Kingslayer or the crit stacking of the Imbued Sword of St. Mihai. At 68 max damage it clears Durandal (66) and sits under the Imbued Sword’s 78. The combat and skill trees guide covers how omniblock interacts with directional defense — this sword discounts exactly that action.
