I think they should give the sword to some of the higher level players to test just to make sure it works. We don't want this going live and then having a whole lot of problems.

I'm pretty sure the sword is on test, just VERY rare.

Yeah, I see what you mean, but if there were more that would mess up the plot! I mean, it doesn't say El Patron had a million of them. Only one. So it would be pretty odd to see everyone having an El Patron's Sword at the same time. "This powerful blade once belonged to the famous conquistador, El Patron himself. According to legend, the blade was cursed with El Patron's last breath and his soul now haunts the blade." Now, I for one see a "this" at the beginning... not a "these". And a "the" in it. Not an "a". So It looks like there would be only one of them. It says he cursed IT with his last breath. Lol. So if more than one can have it, then it should say, "El Patron took all the swords out of his pocket and cursed them all". Am I right? I'm pretty sure no one is getting this sword except for Jolly Roger or some other evil guy or perhaps Capt. Walter. I very well could be wrong, but what Disney was saying about El Patron's Sword a few days ago, looks to be like proof that there is only one.

Buck, you have a really good point.

Now this is just a guess, but I think Disney isn't really going to take that into account, and every player will have the same chance to get the sword.(although it will be really rare, and we should be lucky to even find one.)

I for one hope they don't care about the fact there's only one sword, and we can all get it. Of course it'd be silly to see everyone with the same sword, but if you think about it, they can make the sword as rare as possible. It can be as rare as the clothing drops before the new inventory system. I never once was able to get a clothing drop on open, and if the sword is this rare, it will be worth getting.

Yes, I could be entirely wrong that the sword wouldn't be on the game for just a regular player. I just don't see Disney giving someone a sword that can turn you into a ghost. Perhaps they will do that, but I thought ghosts can't get hurt, and if they don't get hurt, well, then the person with the sword would be level 30 quickly going to 50 in a few days.
