War

War is a heavy sword used by Shadow Stalker, given to him by the Sentient Hunhow during the events of the Second Dream Quest.
==Characteristics==
*This weapon deals primarily damage.
*Every hit on enemies that are not knocked down procs an status effect.
*Stance slot has polarity, matches and stances.
*Innate polarity.
==Notes==
*Because the received from completing The Second Dream quest comes with a free Orokin Catalyst, it is recommended not to use it to craft War, as the pre-installed catalyst will not carry over into the crafted War. A separate Broken War can be crafted and used to craft War – the player will be given the choice of which to use at the Foundry. 
==Trivia==
*The energy that surrounds War's blades and the glowing light in its hilt will react to different things.
**If the Energy color is not customized, the lights correspond to the elemental damage present on the weapon. If no elements are present, the lights glow red, identical to when the Shadow Stalker is attacking the player. The light blue seen in the weapon icon and other appearances can be achieved with damage.
**War's lights will also briefly glow after it kills an enemy.
**When holstered, both the blade and hilt glow will dissipate until brandished again.
**When channeling was still available, both would also glow extremely bright and gradually return to normal brightness after turning channeling off. This specific trait was shared with the and .
*In the The Second Dream quest, War was not only the sword that the Shadow Stalker used, but also housed the consciousness of the Sentient Hunhow. War would be shattered in two during the climax of the quest, creating the sword, which is simply the broken off piece re-purposed as a weapon.
*This weapon, along with the Broken War, is the first Sentient weapon available to players.
*The pommel of this weapon is similar in shape and design to the Hunhow Sentinel Mask.
*The name "War" references the biblical Horsemen of the Apocalypse. The horseman of the red horse, War, is charged with bringing battle and slaughter, and is given a great sword. This is reflected in the weapon's main color being red, and its sheer size.
==Bugs==
*On very rare occasion, War's lights won't stop glowing after getting a kill or channeling is toggled off. This can often be visually distracting, but can usually be fixed by dying. It is unconfirmed whether or not this bug still exists after channeling being removed from the game.
