Line 41:
* ''[[Diablo II]]'' gives all blunt weapons this effect against undead monsters, and also has weapons with specific anti-undead or anti-demon enchantments.
* Weapons with bonuses against the Darkspawn, undead, and/or demons are pretty commonplace in the ''[[Dragon Age]]'' series, but ''[[Dragon Age II]]'' also has a greatsword with a large bonus against [[Proud Warrior Race|Qunari]]. Fittingly, {{spoiler|you pick it up shortly before storming a Qunari stronghold.}} In the following act, a Qunari gives you a sword specialized against humans (probably as a stealth comeback).
* The ''[[Valkyrie Profile]]'' series has a whole range of Slayer
** In addition to the Slayer weapons, there are also weapons that have a Death effect based on a given element. With these, the weapon will instantly kill anything that has that elemental weakness, regardless of total HP or defenses. This includes the penultimate boss on the way to the [[Golden Ending]], who can be killed in one round by a sword you picked up around the midpoint of the game.

* ''[[Age of Wonders]]: Shadow Magic'' has a "[http://aow2.heavengames.com/aowsm/gameinfo/unitabilities/general.shtml#Dragon%20Slaying Dragon Slaying]" unit ability, given to Knight and available on weapons for Hero Unit.
* ''[[Runescape]]'' has several examples, including Silverlight (and its upgraded form, Darklight) for slaying demons; Balmung, the Battleaxe of Dagannoth Slaying; the Ivandis Flail, used for killing Vyrewatch vampyres; and the brackish blade and brine sabre, which are super-effective against crabs for some reason.
* ''[[Shining Force]]'' has a variety of specialized weapons that are strong against specific types of
* ''[[Castlevania: Symphony of the Night]]'' has the Werebane, which is supposed to do more damage against werebeasts. [[Informed Ability|It doesn't.]] Apparently they didn't program it correctly...
* ''[[The Legend of Dragoon]]'' has two ancient weapons forged to defeat Dragons and Dragoons: one of them was the [[Laser Blade|Dragon Buster]] sword, capable of piercing the Dragoon armor. Unlike most video game examples, it's your ''enemy'' that wields it, handicapping you during your battles against him.
