 +====== Short Sword Item ======
  
 +{{ rpd:images:shortsword_sprite.png|Short Sword }}
 +
 +The **Short Sword** is a basic melee weapon in Remixed Dungeon. It is the starting weapon for the Warrior class.
 +
 +==== Item Overview ====
 +  * **Type:** Melee Weapon
 +  * **Tier:** 1 (lowest tier melee weapon)
 +  * **Damage:** 1-3 (base damage)
 +  * **Speed:** 1.0x (normal speed)
 +  * **Accuracy:** 1.0x (normal accuracy)
 +  * **Strength Required:** 11
 +  * **Max Durability:** 12
 +
 +==== Special Mechanics ====
 +  * **Reforge Ability:** When upgraded (level > 0), the Short Sword gains a special "Reforge" action
 +  * **Reforge Effect:** Using the Reforge action consumes the Short Sword to upgrade another weapon and provide a Scroll of Upgrade effect
 +  * **Safe Upgrade:** The reforge action safely upgrades another weapon without destroying enchantments
 +  * **Action Time:** Takes 2 turns to complete the reforge action
 +  * **Cannot upgrade Boomerangs:** The reforge action specifically prevents use on boomerangs
 +  * **Badge Tracking:** Completing a reforge validates the item for level acquisition badges
 +
 +==== Strategy ====
 +  * Starting weapon for Warrior class with modest but reliable stats
 +  * Early-game weapon that can be useful until better weapons are found
 +  * The reforge ability makes it valuable to keep if upgraded, as it can enhance another weapon
 +  * Low strength requirement makes it accessible early in the game
 +  * Good balance of damage and speed for early encounters
 +
 +==== Acquisition ====
 +  * Standard starting equipment for Warrior class
 +  * Can potentially be found as a random drop in the dungeon
 +  * Available in some shops
 +
 +==== Content Verification ====
 +  * Information source: Java Class [[https://github.com/NYRDS/remixed-dungeon/blob/master/RemixedDungeon/src/main/java/com/watabou/pixeldungeon/items/weapon/melee/ShortSword.java|ShortSword.java]]
 +  * Stats verification: Extracted directly from ShortSword.java constructor (super(1, 1f, 1f) for damage, speed, accuracy)
 +  * Special mechanics: Based on code analysis of actions(), _execute(), and itemSelector methods
 +  * String resources: [[https://github.com/NYRDS/remixed-dungeon/blob/master/RemixedDungeon/src/main/res/values-ru/strings_all.xml#L3551-L3557|ShortSword strings]] (Russian localization including ShortSword_Name, ShortSword_Info, ShortSword_ACReforge, ShortSword_Select, ShortSword_Reforged, ShortSword_NotBoomerang)
