So I've made that weapon considerably less potent.  I don't anticipate
making any other changes.  It gives +2 Str, +2 Pow -4 Cha, dam 35.
Is +4 stats unreasonable?

If by "unique" you mean "only one person may solve the map, ever", uh, no.
I'm very disinclined to make quests that can only be done once,
though I've no problem making quests which can only be done once by
a particular character.

PM.
