The Wyrmhero Blade is a powerful Greatsword available in Final Fantasy XII. Unlike most weapons, the Wyrmhero Blade has no license, and therefore anyone can equip it regardless on requiring the license mark or not. It has an Attack power of 130, second only to Tournesol, and has a high Combo rate of 80%. Additionally, the user is bestowed with constant Faith and Bravery, and also +50 to Evasion, which is the highest of any weapon in the game. It is also the slowest weapon in the game. It is known as the "Dragon Crest" in the Bazaar price list, and costs 65,535 gil. (The value is a reference to the maximum total experience points attainable in the original Dragon Quest games. Obtaining 65,535 experience points was seen as a popular, if highly optional, challenge. See also | Wikipedia's entry on the number for its occurrence in other games.)
It should also be noted that the Wyrmhero Blade is a key item.
It is one of the swords wielded by Gilgamesh. This weapon emits sound effects from Dragon Quest when it either hits an enemy or misses them.
Unlike most powerful weapons, the Wyrmhero Blade can be acquired via rare loots and key items from three sidequests:
