Trivia[edit]

  • The name of this weapon comes from the legendary weapon of King Arthur, Excalibur.
    • The name of the mission from which you first obtain this weapon from also originates from the Arthurian legend, being named after Avalon, the island Arthur was taken to recover from being gravely wounded in battle.
