Nightingale Blade

The Nightingale Blade is a leveled, unique, One-Handed weapon found in. It once belonged to the Nightingale and former Thieves Guild leader Gallus Desidenius.

Acquisition
Karliah gives the blade as a reward for completing the Thieves Guild quest "Hard Answers".

Enchantment
The blade bears a unique enchantment called Nightingale's Talon. This enchantment cannot be learned or applied to other items:


 * Absorb Health: 25 points
 * Absorb Stamina: 25 points

Smithing
The Nightingale Blade can be upgraded with an ebony ingot and the Arcane Blacksmith perk; however, it does not benefit from any Smithing perks.

Levels
The damage, weight, value and magnitude of the enchantment is based on the Dragonborn's level when the weapon is obtained. The best possible version is available at level 46.

Trivia

 * The Nightingale Blade has the same sheath as Dawnbreaker and Chillrend.
 * At level 46, it has the same base damage as the Daedric Sword.

Bugs

 * The highest level version of the Nightingale Blade does not show up in the improvement menu after interacting with a Grindstone. All other versions do show up and can be improved.
 * To avoid the bug above, edit the improvement recipe of the blade using the Creation Kit : open, in Items / Constructible Object, TemperWeaponNightingaleBlade05 and set Created Object to NightingaleBlade05 (instead of NightingaleBlade04, a false value) ; save the change in a plugin (a .esp file) and active this one when starting the game.
 * A bug allows players to acquire multiple copies of the Nightingale Blade. This occurs as a result of Karliah  not returning to the Thieves Guild for the quest The Pursuit (another glitch). The fix is to return to the Dwemer Museum and repeat the quest Hard Answers, bringing a new copy of the Charcoal Rubbing of the translation to the Frozen Hearth. When spoken to, Karliah will give the player a second Nightingale Blade (assuming the quest was already completed once).
 * It can slip through display cases or fall off of weapon racks.
