'''Jingwei's Shock Sword''' is a special variant of the [[Chinese Officer's Sword]] wielded by the commander of Chinese forces in Anchorage, [[General Jingwei]]. It is available only through the ''[[Operation: Anchorage]]'' [[Fallout 3 add-ons|add-on]]. It can be repaired using standard [[Chinese Officer's Sword]]s or [[Vampire's Edge]]. It electrocutes the enemy doing a damage of 2 per second for 5 seconds. On a critical, it reduces the enemy to a pile of ash. The Shock Sword is tied with the Shishkebab for the best melee weapon, even though the Shishkebab has the highest DPS in the game it must be repaired constantly. The Glitched Anchorage Shock Sword will always do the same DPS with out degrading, thus making it the more preferable choice for players who do not want to constantly repair the Shishkebab, who have a low repair skill, or who just like the overall appearance of this sword more than the shishkebab.

Jingwei's Shock Sword is a special variant of the Chinese Officer's Sword wielded by the commander of Chinese forces in Anchorage, General Jingwei. It is available only through the Operation: Anchorage add-on. It can be repaired using standard Chinese Officer's Swords or Vampire's Edge. It electrocutes the enemy doing a damage of 2 per second for 5 seconds. On a critical, it reduces the enemy to a pile of ash. The Shock Sword is tied with the Shishkebab for the best melee weapon, even though the Shishkebab has the highest DPS in the game it must be repaired constantly. The Glitched Anchorage Shock Sword will always do the same DPS with out degrading, thus making it the more preferable choice for players who do not want to constantly repair the Shishkebab, who have a low repair skill, or who just like the overall appearance of this sword more than the shishkebab.

Tied with a good Sneak skill, Melee skill, and Chinese Stealth Suit, sneak attack criticals will deal MASSIVE damage, enough to reduce a Super Mutant Master's health significantly. Only the most hardy enemies, such as Sentry Bots, Giant Radscorpions, Yao Guai, and Deathclaws can withstand this punishment.

Location

After completing the Anchorage Reclamation simulation in Operation: Anchorage, a sealed armory is unlocked in the Outcast Outpost which contains several DLC-exclusive weapons and armor. Jingwei's Shock Sword is among the cache, along with a Trench Knife, a Gauss Rifle, ammo, and other items. It also seems to be the only chinese officer sword that isnt rusty at the handle.

The other location for this sword is right at the end of the simulation. You can obtain it by shooting it out of General Jingwei's hand and picking it up off the ground in the final fight of the simulation (see the glitch to keep all of your simulation items and that will give a clear description on how to obtain the simulation version of this sword).

Notes

  • It is possible to have 2 Jingwei's shockswords outside the simulation (1 being from the VSS Armory). This is possible by exploiting a glitch that allows the player to take out equipment from the simulation during 'Paving the Way' quest until the end. To get the first copy, shoot it out of general Jingwei's hand and pick it up, then do the Operation: Anchorage glitch to bring it back to the Outpost. The simulation sword is indestructible and is in full condition. For details on the glitch, see Operation: Anchorage glitches
  • Critical Hit kills with this weapon causes a blue "electric vaporization" that was originally unique to critical hit kills performed by the Alien Blaster and Firelance.
  • Followers will not equip Jingwei's Shock Sword, even if it has a higher damage rating than their default melee weapon. If you obtain a second copy from General Jingwei through the glitch, then followers will equip the version of the sword from the simulation.
  • Because of Stealth Criticals, Equiping the Chinese Stealth Armor makes you near invincible, being able to one-hit almost every monster and reduce them to dust.
  • It has been reported that while holding or swinging the sword will not ignite gas leaks, scoring a hit on an NPC or creature "WILL" set off the leak. (confirmed on Xbox 360)
  • Sometimes, when trying to shoot Jingwei's Shocksword out of his hand at the final battle scene of Operation: Anchorage, he might involuntarily fly up into the air during VATS and then fall to his death afterwards, requiring you to reload a previous save if you wish to obtain the nearly indestructible simulation version.
