Each successful clear of the final boss offers a chance to add this powerful sword to your arsenal.

Maximizing Your Drop Chances

While the Heartshadow sword is a random drop, there are specific in-game challenges and activities you can complete to significantly increase your odds of obtaining it. These methods are designed to reward players who thoroughly engage with the dungeon's content and objectives.
