Culwen's Point is a unique War Sword from Diablo II: Lord of Destruction.
Culwen's Point is one of the first unique swords to give a bonus to all skills, although it is a minimal bonus. Beside this skill boost, Culwen's Point actually has few notable properties.
Most of the advantages of Culwen's Point are indirect, rather than directly correlated to damage. Its increased Attack Speed, when combined with its increase Attack Rating, may make Culwen's Point simply land more hits and deal more damage than other weapons, assuming that a wielder of Culwen's Point has high enough Dexterity.
Additionally, Culwen's Point also has some useful defensive bonuses. It reduces the length of Poison by 50%. This may be particularly useful against bosses such as Andariel, or enemies like Mummies.
Culwen's Point also gives its user a Faster Hit Recovery. Although not going so far as to decrease damage, this would give a physical fighter more time to recover from hits and strike back with their own, generally giving them the upper hand in a one-on-one battle, or preventing them from being deadlocked when surrounded by hordes of enemies.
