Adamantite smelting and weighty melee sweeps
Forged from 12 Adamantite Bars at an advanced Mythril Anvil or Orichalcum Anvil, the Adamantite Sword serves as the primary broadsword for worlds blessed with adamantite ore deposits. It features persistent autoswing across an arc designed to fend off aggressive subterranean crawlers and early Hardmode cavern creatures, delivering reliable sweeping protection without requiring manual clicking.
Progression priorities and legendary reforge
With 61 base melee damage and 6 knockback, it packs significant punch per swing, matching titanium in raw power while cycling with a slightly slower 21 use time. Because it lacks ranged beam projection, engaging boss encounters like Retinazer without taking damage requires careful maneuvering. Equipping melee accessories like the Titan Glove grants extra knockback and size, improving crowd control in cramped shafts. When crafted, Legendary provides the optimal prefix for swing speed, reach, and impact.
Trivia
- The Adamantite Sword features a crimson-tinted blade aesthetic matching the molten red appearance of its constituent ore.
- Its broad swing radius makes it effective at sweeping away bat swarms in tight cavern corridors.
