Cursed Empress Handles
Blades of Chaos handles with a low chance to increase Strength and Runic damage on each hit, alongside better stats than basic Steel Handles.
How it works
The IGN passage says these handles are dropped among several items after defeating the Draugr miniboss The Hateful in the Bay of Bounty. Each hit has a low chance to grant an increase to Strength and Runic damage. The guide also states that the handles provide a better stat increase than the basic Steel Handles, without listing numeric values.
