In Game Description
A bladeless, thick mass of iron used for smashing.
According to the ancestors of Stonefang's excavators, it's said this weapon was created to face dragons, and is imbued with magic to protect the wielder from fire.
Availability
The Dragon Bone Smasher can only be obtained once per play through.
- To obtain the Dragon Bone Smasher you must either have a Pure White World Tendency when you enter 2-3 to fight the Dragon God, or achieve Pure White for Stonefang by defeating him. If you have Pure White World Tendency then the rubble between the sword and the central starting hallway will be gone, and it is yours for the taking.
Note that the sword location is a safe spot, but the boss can still kill you while approaching it or while killing the Crystal Lizard in front. Also, like all heavy items (it weighs 20 units), if it makes you overburdened and you drop it when picking it up, you must make room to pick it up before you die or leave the world, or it is lost for this playthrough.
General Information
Don't be fooled by its seemingly low B rank in strength. It also has high base damage, and almost all other weapons with S rankings have low base. This means the weapon will not require so much investment in its attribute to deal large amounts of damage. At 99 Strength, it has 280 + 280 Physical Attack.
Keep in mind also that although you don't really notice it, the B rank will still increase to a higher bonus but will stay inside the B rating so it becomes hard to tell.
Can be enchanted using Curse Weapon and Light Weapon
If shown to Scirvir, The Wanderer the player will receive a Pure Greystone. This will not remove the sword from your inventory so feel free to show it to him (i.e. hold it in your right hand or left hand) without any consequences.

Name: | Names displayed are according to the Atlus (NA) version of the game. Name changes from the Asian version, if any, will appear in parentheses. |
Damage: |
The Damage stat dictates how much damage the weapon does. The Damage stats for a weapon are X / Y / Z:
Bleed, Poison and Plague are bonus damage over a period of 60 seconds. So, if a weapon has "Bleed 120", the victim will suffer 120 damage over 60 seconds, or 2 damage per second. Each weapon has one or more physical damage types:
Certain enemies are weak or strong against different types of damage types. |
Durability: | The durability of the weapon. The effectiveness of the weapon will severely deteriorate when the durability falls below 30%. |

Stats Needed: |
The Stats Needed determines how high various Stats must be in order to wield the weapon effectively. The Requirement stats for an weapon are W / X / Y / Z:
Wielding a weapon without the required Strength and/or Dexterity will incur a penalty to the Physical damage of the weapon, while lower-than-required Magic and/or Faith will reduce the Magic damage of the weapon. Also keep in mind that your character gains a 50% bonus to Strength by wielding a weapon with both hands, thus reducing the actual Strength required. For example, a character with 18 Strength can wield a Great Axe (Requires 26 Strength) properly if the weapon is held with both hands. |
