Quick verdict
Pick Purity if you are building a Tethren-line Courage/Spirit melee endgame—Vetch is the better fit when you are still climbing Courage and want a lighter Long Blade without the Mendicant King farm. Purity is a Rare Heavy (Greatsword) at 68 base attack with Courage+Spirit attunement (17 Courage required) from Mendicant King; Vetch is an Uncommon Long Blade at **48 attack** with Courage+Grace and only 11 Courage required, sourced from Dermak Undercity faction tales. Run Purity for boss-gated heavy pressure in mature Tethren builds; choose Vetch for mid-progression thrusting Long Blade play or when you want Grace co-attunement instead of Spirit. Different weapon classes—do not swap purely on base attack.
Weapon overview Purity Heavy · Courage · Rare
The undead greatsword of a Mendicant knight. Named for the owner's intentions, Purity was there in the Fonnish Charge, tucked into her scabbard. Though her knight, like most others on that wretched march, perished before he could draw his sword. She waited in her scabbard. Eras rose and fell. Until at last, her knight climbed from the grave to draw her at last.
