Nilfgaardian Sword

The Nilfgaardian sword is a steel sword in The Witcher 2, the type of blade Geralt uses against humans and other non-monstrous opponents. It deals 12-16 base damage and has no secondary effects such as bleeding or knockdown.

It weighs 8 and has no upgrade slots, so it cannot be improved with runes. That makes it a plain, no-frills weapon: slightly harder hitting than the weakest steel swords, but with nothing to customize.
