      Did they change the extra 1d4 psychic damage condition on this weapon as well? I know they completely removed it on the longsword and they changed it on the greatsword (applies when wielder is githyanki).

        Has anyone actually gotten this weapon? I always get the Greatsword, Longsword and the Crossbow but never this weapon. Am I just unlucky or is this not obtainable?
