Hue0 [!] — undyed: a plain Skeletal Blade wears its art's own colours, which is how the picture is drawn. A crafted one takes the colour of the metal or wood it is made from.

How fast it actually swings depends on your stamina and Swing Speed Increase — the toolkit's weapon builder and Reference › Weapons work that out for your character.

Where these come from

Damage, speed, hands and skill are the toolkit's weapon table; the special moves, their base mana and what they do come from uo.com's Special Moves page; the named weapons and their properties are the toolkit's item database. Everything here is from uo.com or the game itself; anything uo.com does not publish is marked [!] as unpublished where it appears.
