Summit Shaper focuses primarily on attack, with its sub stat as well as passives giving the holder extra attack. This weapon was crafted by Rex Lapis and is currently not the best in slot for any character.

Story
A long time ago, a dragon there was to be found in Liyue.
Not a dragon that soared the skies, but one whose abode was the mountains.
The legends say that it slumbered in Nantianmen, seeming not at all unlike the surrounding hills.
But when it awakened, even the tiniest movement, or the slightest stretch...
That would cause the earth to tremble and shake.
Then, Rex Lapis came before the dragon, seeking to stop the earth's quailing.
They say that for a long while, the land knew peace,
And that Rex Lapis gained another comrade by his side.
But in the end, the union of dragons, gods and men was perhaps not to be...
The dragon was sealed in the bowels of the earth. Fearing the ire of the gods and the adepti,
The Geovishaps, who once heeded the trembling of the rock and wrought havoc alongside the dragon,
Fled into the roots of the mountains. But as millennia passed, the dragon began to stir once again...
The legends hold that those who triumphed over the dragon stabbed this sword into the ground next to the giant tree that subdued the ancient dragon.
As one of the seals, monsters and malevolent mortals would be unable to touch it.
Indeed, if the legends are true, only those with hearts as pure as clear mirrors could even come near it.
Yet, if those legends are true, how did this sword come to be lost?
Trivia

FAQs
Can you still get The Unforged?
The Unforged is an event exclusive 5 Star weapon, which means that it’s only available on the Epitome Invocation banner when it is on rate up. Be on the lookout for its next appearance in the near future!
Is The Unforged good?
The Unforged provides a massive amount of pure %ATK in teams where the user is being shielded. This makes it an attractive option for damage heavy characters, assuming you are still able to hit important Crit Rate/DMG breakpoints without a Crit Rate/DMG weapon to assist you.
Who are some of the best users of The Unforged?
Eula and Razor are two excellent choices, as they produces massive amounts of damage and are commonly paired with shielding characters like Diona and Zhongli. That also allows them to benefit fully from its passive that greatly boosts its ATK bonuses.
Final Thoughts
Similarly to other weapons within the Liyue series of 5 star weapons, The Unforged does have a great dependency on shielding needed in order to maximize its effect, or else it is rather lackluster compared to its competition in the 5-star category. If its conditions are met however, it is a fine weapon and worth investing into should you fall into possession of one!
