Crimtane forging and mining capabilities
Assembling this pickaxe requires twelve Crimtane Bar ingots and six Tissue Sample items, forged at an Iron Anvil or Lead Anvil. With 70% pickaxe power, it penetrates hard minerals that stop earlier copper, iron, and gold tools. It breaks through Ebonstone, Crimstone, Obsidian, and Meteorite, and can excavate Hellstone within the Underworld.
Evil counterpart comparison and ideal reforges
Compared to its Corruption rival, the Nightmare Pickaxe with 65% pickaxe power, the Deathbringer deals heavier strikes with 12 base melee damage and higher pick power. However, it swings with useTime 22 compared to the Nightmare's 20, making it slightly slower at clearing soft dirt. For pure excavation speed, Light is the optimal modifier, while Legendary enhances its defensive swing and knockback.
Trivia
- This tool is capable of mining Hellstone, opening access to molten equipment before Hardmode.
- Its pickaxe power surpasses the Nightmare Pickaxe by 5%, though it swings at a slightly lower speed.
