Sword of the Zephyr (Thaumcraft 3)

"You have merged the elemental fury of a wand of lightning with a thaumium sword."

The Sword of the Zephyr is a elemental weapon added by Thaumcraft 3. It has similar damage and durability to the vanilla Diamond Sword however when used to attack a target, it sweeps in a wide area, dealing damage to other damageable entities close to your target.

The Sword of the Zephyr can also conjure a flurry of wind around the user that pushes entities and loose objects away from the user. It also deflects projectiles such as arrows. Blocking while falling will also reduce falling speed to a gentle fall.

(Note) You have to research the Wand of Lightning before you can unlock the ability to research the Sword of the Zephyr.
