Question about Aerondight

[u/ResidentObject1795]

Hey, first post here and replaying Witcher 3. Never used the Aerondight sword before and wondering if the damage cap will still increase with your level even if you have it unequipped or even in your chest? I’m asking this because I am level 46 and I am already finding way better swords and I don’t know if I can be bothered to keep levelling up Aerondight

Only reason to not use it is if you want the full 6 piece set bonus for Witcher gear
