Demonbane is a lawful long sword that has +1d5 to hit and deals double damage against all proper major demons, i.e. all & except Death, Pestilence, Famine, djinn, the mail daemon, and sandestins.
Unlike a silver saber or other silver weapons, Demonbane does not deal additional damage against minor demons.[1]
[edit] References
- ↑ Demonbane gets a bonus against monster types with the M2_DEMON flag set (spec_applies in artifact.c; artilist.h, line 105). No minor demon has this flag (Imps and other minor demons in monst.c).
