A katana +2 is an enchanted and magical variation of the katana. Compared to that weapon, it deals more damage at an improved THAC0, weighs less and is even faster than its non-enchanted base version – each by a value of two. Katanas +2 are obtainable in The Black Pits, Baldur's Gate II and The Black Pits II Gladiators of Thay. “ To enchant a katana is no simple process. Unlike conventional weapons, the katana is already a near-perfect fighting sword. To improve it usually requires a sacrifice, perhaps a dying samurai might beg a Wu Jen to infuse his fighting spirit into the spirit of the katana. The wielder of an enchanted katana, such as this one, must respect the customs of Kara-Tur and of the samurai who once carried this blade into battle. Not doing so could drastically change one's luck for the worse. ” Locations[] The Black Pits[] Sold by Thardek from Tier 3 ×3 Shadows of Amn[] If sided with Bodhi Athkatla Docks, Aran Linvail's Hideout – found inside a drawer in his roomAR0329 If sided with the Shadow Thieves Athkatla Graveyard, Lower Tombs, Bodhi's Lair – found inside a trapped50 Lightning Bolt and locked70 chest, together with the Ashen ScalesAR0803 Used by Ryokoican't be stolen Throne of Bhaal[] Gladiators of Thay[] Sold by the Weapon Merchant ×2 Unused references[] As the store files of Karthis al-Hezzar and the Tankard Tree were imported into the Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition game code, there can be found more instances of the katana +2 – which aren't accessible, however.
