Perhaps I've misunderstood, and I ought to rephrase: This is meant to have +8 damage, which is level with the UBS. I really meant what I said in the edit, that it should NOT be equal with mithril.

I did not mean to claim existing breaches as grounds to add more, it's just that your argument makes no sense when you look at all the other unbalanced non-canon things you've added. It's like, "yeah we can add non-canon stuff but you can't suggest it." Seriously. After addind the freaking Tauredain, you want me to take it seriously when you say something has no place in Tolkien's lore, especially something that makes sense?

What's more: "Then he was filled with a red wrath and shouted aloud, and displaying his standard, black serpent upon scarlet, he came against the white horse and the green with great press of men; and the drawing of the scimitars of the Southrons was like a glitter of stars." That's from Return of the King, Chapter 6, "The Battle of the Pellenor Fields." I'd say that sounds a lot like Tolkien meant that the Southrons' scimitars were high quality. Crucible steel has been known to be very pure and therefore very shiny.

If you consider all the other things I've mentioned that would nerf the tar out of this weapon, it's really not that bad in comparison with the UBS. It deals +8 attack damage (NOT MITHRIL LEVEL lmao I goofed that up so badly before), and is difficult to modify well. The Uruk Berserker Cleaver is cheaper, and does just as much. This just adds a way for Harad to have more powerful weapons, and more personality, as well as a high-level trading item to sell to the Dalish/make an +ULFBERH+T sword with. Seriously, this isn't going to break anything. it's literally the same (unmodified) as a Dwarven sword with Sharp on it. I'll be damned if that's OP.
