How To Get Genshin Impact Dark Iron Sword

Want to get your hands on the Dark Iron Sword in Genshin Impact? Here is how you can!

Dark Iron Sword in Genshin Impact has to be the rarest 3-star sword that you can get. Interestingly this is the only weapon in the game that you cannot refine as you can only acquire it once. Getting it isn’t difficult you just have to talk to an NPC for it. After you exhaust their dialogues they will gift it to you.

It can be surprisingly useful for Electro characters because it allows various elemental reactions like Overloaded, Superconduct, Electro-Charged, Quicken, Aggravate, and Hyperbloom. Since there are plenty of Dendro characters in the game now, you have more combinations to set up these reactions. So here are all the Stats and Skills that Dark Iron Sword offers in Genshin Impact and how you can ascend it.
