Magic Weapons. When you Wield a magic weapon, such as the Magic Weapon, gain the benefits described by that weapon, such as increased Damage. This increase to Damage also affects Low Scores, bringing the Damage up to 1.
When dealing 0 Damage, it is also still possible to inflict Status Conditions. This Ability has no Status Conditions of its own, but other Abilities can augment or build on this one, adding Status Conditions to it.
