Notes
- Unlike most Shortswords, Shadow Blade is classed as a Simple weapon and not a Martial weapon.
- While this weapon can be dipped in most cases, it cannot be Dipped in Fire.
- The Shadow Blade passive granted by this weapon does not grant advantage against obscured targets, instead seeming to do nothing.
- The shadow weapon requires Concentration and disappears if you lose Concentration. You may recast it, using the ring, every Short Rest.
