Pipe
Pipe is a Rare sword obtainable in the First Sea. While it is not considered a top-tier weapon, it has gained a reputation for being surprisingly fun to use in PvP, particularly among players who enjoy unconventional or troll-oriented playstyles.
The sword is not commonly used for grinding or serious progression, as stronger alternatives are available. Instead, its appeal comes from its unique feel and the entertainment value it can provide in combat.
Pipe also stands out visually, featuring a metal staff wrapped by a golden dragon with a small animated flame at the top. Its distinctive design helps it remain memorable despite its limited practical use compared to other swords.
Obtainment:
The Pipe can be purchased for $100,000 from the Sword Deale Of the East
in Frozen Village.

Verdict
Pipe is an underrated Rare sword that performs better in PvP than its rarity suggests. While its damage and utility are fairly average, its mobility, range, and ability to hit multiple targets give it enough tools to remain competitive during the First Sea.
