Halloween monster drop and rapid close-quarters slashes
Dropped by common monsters during the Halloween seasonal event with a base 0.05% drop rate. The Bladed Glove delivers 14 melee damage at an Insanely fast use time of 8 ticks. Its innate autoswing and short swing duration deliver rapid flurry attacks capable of continuously staggering susceptible foes in tight underground corridors. Equipping melee speed accessories further accelerates its flurry rate.
Early melee DPS scaling and reach limitations
While its blade arc has limited range, the glove delivers higher single-target melee DPS than early ore broadswords like Gold Broadsword or Platinum Broadsword. It serves as a pre-Hardmode analog to Fetid Baghnakhs, rewarding high-defense melee setups that trade distance for sustained point-blank strikes. It gradually falls behind once broadswords with projectile effects like Starfury become available. Its best modifier is Legendary.
Trivia
- The weapon clawed leather design pays tribute to the horror film villain Freddy Krueger.
- With an animation speed of only eight ticks per strike, it is among the fastest non-projectile melee weapons in pre-Hardmode.
