Price: +4 bonus
Property: Weapon
Caster Level: 16th
Aura: Strong; Transmutation
Activation:

A brilliant energy weapon has its significant portion – such as its blade, axe head, or arrowhead – transformed into light, although this does not modify the item's weight. It always gives off light as a torch (20-foot radius). A brilliant energy weapon ignores nonliving matter. Armor bonuses to AC (including any anhancement bonuses to that armor) do not count against it because the weapon passes through armor. (Dexterity, deflection, dodge, natural armor, and other such bonuses still apply.) A brilliant energy weapon cannot harm undead, constructs, and objects. This property can only be applied to melee weapons, thrown weapons, and ammunition.

Prerequisites: Craft Magic Arms and Armor , Continual Flame, Gaseous Form .
