Notes[]

  • Prima's Blood Omen 2 Guide does not distinguish between the different sword variants and it names the Scimitar simply as a "Sword"[2]. In-game debug information also presents the Scimitar as a Long Sword variant, calling it "Lsword2" (the Long Sword was "Lsword")
  • In the real world, Icon WikipediaScimitars are single bladed swords (i.e. only one side of the sword is sharp), yet Kain wields the Scimitar as though it has two, using the same animations as the Long Sword; this is particularly evident in Stealth Kills, where Kain cuts with the blunted edge.
