I never got the etherian christmas dlc and I can't get frost sword drops so I was wondering if it's even worth it to buy it now?

The new weapons in shard 3 are supposed to be faster then frost blades. I wouldn't worry about it.

Join someone's game who has it and win it... no need to buy the dlc. Also, I was finding frost blades on omf before I ever won it so maybe it's an exception / x-mas requirement is a lie

i am yet to test my self but the reward for beating the kraken as a squire swings quite fast

I can verify this for you, since I got a really nice Mythical version of the Squire Reward (to give an idea 252^ with 2k Base Damage). It does seem as if it's way better than the Ice Sword, at least from my testing. =)

I just looked on the wiki, seems the Tritons War Glaive seems to be the weapon to have for squire. Each upgrade is 92 extra to base and swings faster than the frost blade. Can't wait to get one now :) only question is, how big does it get?

Well, put it this way, that 252^ 2000k Base one came from an Insane Hardcore run of the Aquanos Campaign. I'd imagine that's as high end as Myths can get as far as weapons go. As for Trans/Superior quality, it's hard to say, since doing the map on Nightmare is pretty damn difficult.

When I say big, I mean physical size.

It's funny when you read it out of context :P

Hmmm, well the one I have seems about average in size, as in the kind of size that looks just right in proportion to it's character and not freakishly small/huge. As for how big they can get, I can imagine pretty big, as with most weapons but i'll need to collect more myself to get an idea.

I was going to post that mine was very tiny but given the out of context viewings, I won't. ;-)

The one I got is definitely shorter than my Frost Blade's reach. It's not as small as the Backstabber, though, but with the swing speed, you'll still be cutting through groups of enemies easily enough.
