It's unintelligent, so characters of any alignment can wield it (with artifact-blast).<br /> <br /> A '''+7 unicorn horn''' (20.5 average damage) is suprisingly competitive with artifact weapons, beating '''Vorpal Blade''', '''Stormbringer (resisted)''', '''Mjollnir (resisted)''', '''Sceptre of Might (resisted)''', '''Staff of Aesculapius (resisted)''', '''Frost Brand (by a lot when resisted)'''. It only beats them by a couple of points in those cases, so the artifact weapons are still better overall.<br /> <br /> A '''+7 unicorn horn in DynaHack''' does 26.5 average damage due to double strength damage bonus, which is ''on par with the other artifact weapons''.<br /> <br /> == Late game damage breakdowns ==<br /> <br /> === +7 Grayswandir ===<br /> <br /> 39.5 silver, 29 non-silver:<br /> <br /> * '''+14''' from enchantment<br /> ** +7 twice from Grayswandir<br /> * '''+6''' from 18/** strength<br /> * '''+10.5 avg''' from silver<br /> * '''+9 avg''' from Grayswandir base damage<br /> ** d8 with double damage vs. all<br /> * '''+0''' from basic skill<br /> ** gaining Grayswandir as a gift unlocks its skill, otherwise this would be -2 for priest restricted saber skill<br /> <br /> === +7 unicorn horn ===<br /> <br /> 20.5:<br /> <br /> * '''+7''' from enchantment<br /> * '''+6''' from 18/** strength<br /> * '''+6.5 avg''' from unicorn horn base damage<br /> * '''+1''' from unicorn horn at skilled</div>
