Eightfold Blade · Zelda: Breath of the Wild: Base equipment reference

Using this reference

When comparing Eightfold Blade, match the equipment slot and version first. Item level, rarity, attack values and defensive values describe different parts of an item; they are not interchangeable scores. Read a damage range as a range rather than assuming every hit reaches its upper end.

Use the nearby entries to compare one practical trade-off, such as requirements against the values you need. If a special effect, acquisition method or upgrade rule is not listed, check the linked source before spending materials or changing your build.

One useful comparison

For Base attack / Attack level, Eightfold Blade is listed at 15, compared with 14 for Boat Oar: a difference of 1. This compares that field in the recorded variants only. Read the other fields before deciding whether the trade-off matters to your use.
