No.. you get it either way cause the shards break when the castle falls.. Just go to the captains quarters on your ship it will be there.. I even picked the "Everything Bad" preset, and it was still there.

No you dont Grubbs008. If you chose to assemble the blade you dont get the shards. Just make a custom story setup and you will have 2 options, 1 is assemble the blade in PoE1 then you wont get it, the other is dont and then you will have the shards, its pretty simple..

this is false - I assembled the blade, "Pellangina utilized it in POE 1" and I had the shards in the Captains quarters along with yenwood.

Dont know if theres a diffrence between when you build a story in the game (should not be really) but thats the diffrence between the 2 choices.

It appears no one has actually answered my question. Lol.

Which predefined history allows me to get it? It's important because of a build I am doing, and before due to a glitch the item wasn't obtainable.

Can I take the Benevolent choice and get the sword or not?

You need ths shards of the swords Whispers of Yenwood and Blade of the Endless Paths. Take them to the blacksmith in Neketaka (she is in the same district as Arkymr's Manor if I recall correctly). She can either restore them both or smith them together into one blade if you have the coin.

wish I could answer this, but I have multiple save games that I utilized from the first game, and every one of them had the shards of both weapons in the Captains quarters in this game.

Create a custom story from the options menu before starting a new game. In there during the option where you decide what had happened in Caed Nua. Choose the option which states that you had not reforged the Blade of the Endless paths...

If you do so then once you obtain your ship (right after the first meeting with the gods) you should find 2 fragments (not one) in your Captain's quarters.

Bring the two fragments to the metalworker vendor in Nekata (the zone where Arkemyr's mansion is). Talk with him and say that you want to reforge the sword.

There are 3 options now.

You may either pay 1500 gold (each) and reforge two swords. One being a regular 1h sword with +damage to spirits. The other being a 2h Estoc with high penetration and cooldown reduction...

Or you may ask him to combine both fragments into a 2h Greatsword for 3000 gold.

If you do so you get a greatsword with increased reach and has a cone aoe with each attack. But the damage of the greatsword is less than the damage of a regular greatsword with the same tier (fine, exceptional, superb) etc.

I pick the former option because I play with a rogue/mage spellcaster as main and 2h Estoc with 12 base penetration was a tremendous sneak attack weapon that one shots almost everything not resistant to pierce damage.

But for a frontline dps paladin, barbarian or figther the 2h greatsword is still a good option.

choose the top option for the back story and the shards will be on your boat in the captains room. I do not know if it works on other options.

OK so you're saying the Benevolent pre-defined setting allows you to have both fragments?

I don't have a save import, and I don't remember some of the core choices from the original because it's been so long since I played it. I also never played White March DLC, so when I do custom histories I don't like making choices because I have no idea what they are or the impact they have on the game.
