Avenger (weapon)



Avenger, also known as Avenger's Edge, is a recurring weapon in the series. It is usually a powerful weapon, obtained late in the game, though this is not always the case. It is usually related to the Berserk status.

It can be dropped from Behemoths and King Behemoths, though they have a low drop rate.
