10 Powerful Video Game Weapons You Had ONE CHANCE To Obtain

10. Flail Of Ages - Baldur's Gate 2

There are few weapons in Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn capable of turning the tide of battle faster than the Flail of Ages.

If players know exactly what to do, acquiring this beast is a breeze. Firstly, they must head to de'Arnise Keep and locate four specific flail components. After these parts are brought to Roger the Fence in the Temple District, he'll be able to forge this monstrous weapon.

The Flail of Ages effortlessly cut the enemies in Baldur's Gate II down to size, and it also interrupts magic attacks, giving spellcasters little chance to fight back. While wielding this behemoth, not even the mightiest golems, dragons, or trolls should pose a threat.

However, it's very easy to lose out on the Flail, due to a nasty boss called TorGal in the very last room of the Keep. If you leave after he's defeated instead of searching out those components, the multi-headed flail is off the table permanently.

Since there's no hint the Flail is only available for this brief window of time, it can easily be missed, especially on the first playthrough.
