The '''Bandos godsword''' is one of the four legendary [[godsword]]s that was fought over during the [[God Wars]]. Requiring 75 [[Attack]] to wield, it is created by attaching a [[Bandos hilt]] to a completed [[godsword blade]], which has no requirements and can be done by any player. Along with the [[Armadyl godsword]], the [[Saradomin godsword]], and the [[Zamorak godsword]], the Bandos godsword carries the highest slash bonus and second-highest strength bonus of all melee weapons in the game, aside from certain weapons in [[Daemonheim]], [[Stealing Creation]], and the [[Dominion Tower]].

Like all godswords, the Bandos godsword has a [[special attack]], ''Warstrike'', which deals 10% extra damage and drains the target's combat stats according to the damage dealt, using 100% of the special attack bar.

==Uses==
''Warstrike'' drains the target's combat skills by 10% of damage dealt, in the following order: [[Defence]], [[Strength]], [[Attack]], [[Prayer]], [[Magic]], [[Ranged]]. If Defence is drained to 1, the remaining drain effects moves onto Strength, and so on down the list. In practice, ''Warstrike'' rarely drains any skill aside from Defence, particularly on powerful [[boss]] monsters and high-level players; however, it can be very effective against [[combat pure]]s who have very low Defence levels, as a high hit from ''Warstrike'' will almost certainly drain Strength. In [[player killing]] situations, the skill drain can be countered with a [[restore potion]] or [[super restore]] potion.

The Bandos godsword is somewhat popular when fighting high-level boss monsters, such as [[Nomad (monster)|Nomad]], God Wars Dungeon bosses, and even the [[Corporeal Beast]] despite the damage reduction for non-spear attacks. A large hit with ''Warstrike'' can substantially drain the target's Defence, making the fight much easier.

Because [[General Graardor]] is the most popular boss to kill in the God Wars Dungeon, the supply of [[Bandos hilt]]s is very high, and the Bandos godsword is the most commonly seen godsword among players. Consequently, it is the least expensive godsword. Some players who wish to [[pay-to-play melee training|train]] with a godsword will buy a Bandos godsword, as it is the cheapest and yet has very high weapon bonuses.

==Trivia==
