The Silver Sword is one of the best weapons in Valheim. It deals tons of damage, has huge durability, and swords have a great set of abilities. The silver sword deals spirit damage which is effective against undead monsters such as Skeletons and Draugr. This will make future trips to the swamp much easier.
The Silver Sword requires the most metals to craft in the game. It will really drain your supplies to craft and upgrade your trusty blade. If you’re already venturing into the Plains and killing Fulings, you might want to avoid upgrading your silver sword too much.
Since the spirit damage is most effective against undead, most players will find the Blackmetal Sword to be more effective for general use.
