* Rewarded for showing the [[Orphic Hammer]] to (or killing) [[Kith'rak Voss]] in [[Act Three]].
* This sword can alternatively be obtained in [[Act One]] by disarming Voss via {{sai|Command (Drop)}}, {{sai|Heat Metal}}, {{sai|Disarming Attack (Ranged)}}, or {{SAI|Honeyed Paws}} before entering the [[Mountain Pass]] {{coords|-139|561}}.
* As of Hotfix #7, this sword can alternatively be obtained in [[Act One]] by disarming Voss via [[Command (Drop)]], [[Disarming Attack (Ranged)]], or [[Disarming Attack (Melee)]] during the Gith patrol encounter before entering the [[Mountain Pass]] {{Coords|-139|561}}.
** If received in Act 1, a second version of this weapon will not be given as a quest reward but can be looted if Voss is killed in Act 3.
** Voss must be disarmed ''before'' beginning combat, as he immediately flies away when any hostile action is taken.
** Voss must be disarmed before beginning the encounter, as he immediately flies away when any hostile action is taken and the party is locked into dialogue when approaching close enough.
** Due to his high stats and [[Supreme Githyanki Parry]], the chance of failing the disarm attempt against him is very high, so this method may require multiple reloads.
** Due to his high stats, the chance of failing the disarm attempt against him is very high, so this method may require multiple reloads or extensive preparation. See: [[Guide: Early Silver Sword]].
**He might sometimes only drop a [[Githyanki Crossbow]] on disarm. The trigger to that is currently not known.
** Using {{SAI|Honeyed Paws}} while having a [[Divination School|divination]] [[wizard]] with a 15 or higher [[portent|portent die]] nearby allows you to guarantee that he drops his weapon. You can long rest until you get 15 or higher and make the bear invisible{{note|The bear companion can drink a {{RarityItem|Potion of Invisibility}} if you put it on the ground.}} so he can approach Voss.

** Sometimes Voss will only drop a [[Githyanki Crossbow]], or the weapon he drops will simply phase out of existence. The triggers for these anomalies are not known.
*The [[Githyanki]]-exclusive bonuses can also be enabled by being [[Disguise Self|Disguised]] as one.
* The sword can be acquired in [[Act Three]] before entering the [[Lower City]] during [[Deal with the Devil]]. If you don't sign the contract but lie to Voss, he will give you the sword ({{Ability check|Deception|30}}).
