Aedernian Short Sword
The Aedernian short sword is a steel sword in The Witcher 2 with 17-25 base damage and a 15% chance to inflict bleeding. The wide damage range means individual hits vary noticeably in strength.
It weighs 7, lighter than many steel swords, and has one upgrade slot for a rune. The combination of solid damage and a fair bleed chance makes it a useful mid-level blade for fights against human enemies.
How to obtain
Sold by Thorak and by the blacksmith’s helper in Chapter 2.
