** 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.

**He might sometimes only drop a [[Githyanki Crossbow]] on disarm. The trigger to that is currently not known.
** Voss will only drop the sword if the prior cutscene showing the dragon is triggered while Lae'zel is in the party, otherwise he will drop [[Githyanki Crossbow]]. Note that Lae'zel will leave the group and run to speak with the Githyanki if you proceed forward after the cutscene, at this point assaulting the Githyanki will turn Lae'zel hostile. Trigger the cutscene with Lae'zel in the party and then immediately dismiss her back to camp before proceeding  if you wish to acquire the sword and keep Lae'zel as a companion.
| notes = *The [[githyanki]]-exclusive bonuses can also be enabled by being [[Disguise Self|disguised]] as one. However, you must be disguised before equipping the weapon for this to work.
