How do I get the Egyptian Khopesh which is in game?

[edwin gibson]

I am new to this game. And would like to know in what ways can I get the Egyptian Khopesh which is in game? It's a type of sickle shaped sword. Is there any Origin that starts you out with one or more of them?
And Also I was wondering what is it's style of use like. Does it function just like another sword? Or is it some where between an Axe effect and sword? Or does some other style or function describes it better?
Thanks for your time. :)

You get them from ancient dead - honor guards and necrosavants specifically

functionally they are a cleaver

Beware though, both honor guards and necrosavants (particularly the latter) are quite dangerous. They won't give you their khopesh without a tough fight!

Thanks for the warning. Is there a safer way to Get khopesh's?

They're exclusive to these enemy types. Necrosavants always have them, Honor Guards can have them.

Sometimes there are camps with a lot of Ancient Auxiliaries (pretty weak) and 2-3 Necrosavants, that would probably be the safest way to get some. But only go there once you have 12 bros in at least 110 body and head armour. Nets are a good idea too against the Necrosavants.

There is exactly one quest in the game that might reward you with a khopesh as a piece of random loot before battle commences, it is also undead themed and as such if you keep hunting the dead you'll, probably, eventually, stumble upon it. Hunting the undead will always be your best bet.
