The Headsman's Hour is a Nightmare Unique zweihander with no boss attached: any drop at Threat 28 or higher can turn out to be it, and at that Threat 0.5% of what falls comes up Unique. It is built on Sovereign Leviathan Zweihander — step 6 of the Leviathan Zweihander line, item level 80 and up.
It always rolls the same numbers: +105 Power, −13% Attack Speed, +5% Melee Lifesteal, +70% Power, +-12% Attack Speed, +10% Frost Damage, +32% Power, +36% Melee Damage, +30% Frost Damage and +6% Melee Lifesteal.
On top of that it carries The Headsman's Hour — Charged Overhead hits 80% harder, crits 15% more often and applies Chill, but winds up 40% slower and strikes 3 fewer enemies.
It leans into Chill.
It is Nightmare Gate loot.
Wearing it hands you Charged Overhead and Whirlwind.
“It takes as long as it takes.”
