Strengths-
- Lightning Rod: as a Sith Sword it can attract and absorb incoming lightning and then unleash that same lightning back when it strikes a physical target
- Amplifier: Murmegil serves as a focus point to harness the Dark Side and turns the wielder into a walking Dark Side nexus if they are powerful enough and have a strong enough connection to the blade.
- Alchemical Properties: due to the Sith alchemy of the blade it can deflect blaster and particle weapons as well as block lightsabers.
- Heavy: despite its powers, it is heavier than a lightsaber and therefore takes more time and effort to swing.
- Not A Lightsaber: it is not an invincible bar of plasma that can sear through nigh anything.
