Line 59:
* In ''[[Assassin's Creed II]]'', the Sword of Altair (best weapon in the game) is actually the simplest and least-adorned weapon in the entire game, especially when compared with the exceptionally ornate blades and hilts of the other sabers, scimitars, and rapiers Ezio can buy. The only real adornment on the blade is a subtle eagle-head carving in the sword's pommel.
* In ''[[Lunar: The Silver Star]]'', Althena's Sword (so named for the goddess of Lunar) can only be wielded by her champion, the Dragonmaster--but has been lost since the last known Dragonmaster, Dyne, died. {{spoiler|Truth is, it's been hiding in plain sight, crusted over with debris and buried to the hilt in Dyne's monument right outside the (mostly) [[Silent Protagonist]] Alex's own village. After proving himself as the next Dragonmaster, Alex is able to draw Althena's Sword [[Only the Chosen May Wield|from the stone]] and reveal its true power.}}
** In the sequel, ''[[Lunar: Eternal Blue]]'', Althena's Sword {{spoiler|is being carried by once-[[Team Pet]] Nall, now grown up and in human form. Astute gamers will recognize it right off the bat, even though the distinctive carved golden handle is wrapped up in bandages. Nall later deems not-so-[[Silent Protagonist]] Hiro worthy of wielding it, despite him not technically passing the Dragonmaster trials.}}
* Dark Souls starts you out with a broken sword hilt. It deals pitiful damage and you get a better weapon nearly immediately, but if you hang on to it and forge it with a particular boss soul, it becomes one of the most powerful weapons in the game. Demon's Souls featured a similar weapon constructed from an equally useless sword hilt.
* In ''[[Golden Sun]]: The Lost Age'', you can find rusty weapons in certain patches of shallow water in the ocean as soon as you get the ship. If you take these to Sunshine the Blacksmith, he will agree to fix them up, resulting in weapons that are reasonably good for that part of the game.
