Animation of the Exotic Scimitar.

The Exotic Scimitar is a melee weapon that has a 12.5% chance of being dropped from the Dye Trader. It is considered to be a broadsword and will, therefore, swing overhead.

Its best modifier is Legendary.

Notes

• Because the player cannot directly attack the Dye Trader with normal weapons, Rotten Eggs or external damage sources such as traps are needed to kill him.
• The Dye Trader will use this weapon when defending himself.
• While it has more power and equal speed compared to the Muramasa, it is limited in usefulness by its low size and lack of autoswing.

Trivia

• A scimitar is a curved sword of Middle Eastern origin used for slashing. It was used as early as the 9th century and has become an important symbol in many Arab cultures.
• This weapon looks very similar to the Cutlass.
• It also looks similar to the swords that you click to enable PvP in multiplayer.
