10 Rarest RPG Weapons Ever

7. The Grandfather - Diablo IV

The Grandfather - Diablo IV
Blizzard

Being the newest entry on our list, the rarity of items and weapons in Diablo IV is a hot topic that is constantly changing and while we expect that to continue, The Grandfather remains incredibly rare.

The two-handed sword can be used by any class and consists of enviable stats including between approximately 2,000 and 3,000 damage per hit, one attack per second, 35% Critical Strike Damage, an additional 28 to 56% damage, a huge bonus to your maximum life, ignoring durability loss on death, and an additional 40 to 72 points to all of your stats. On top of all that its legendary aspect increases your Critical Strike Damage by 60 to 100%. While all of these stats depend on the luck of the drop, you’d have to be very fortunate to see this thing drop in the first place as it was only very recently that a player confirmed having received it online.

The first person to get it was a Chinese player who had already hit level 100 and received it from a Helltide chest so if you’re already grinding Helltides you’re on the right track.
