Shrine discovery and illuminated sword beam generation
The Enchanted Sword is discovered inside Enchanted Sword Shrines found in the outer thirds of the world, or fished from Gold and Titanium Crates with a 2% chance. Swung with 23 base melee damage and 4.25 knockback at Fast speed (21 use time), it discharges a bright sword beam with every slash. The beam travels in a straight line without expending mana or ammunition, piercing darkness and illuminating subterranean caverns.
Early melee safety, Zenith crafting integration, and reforges
The projectile beam enables melee warriors to contest agile bosses like the Eye of Cthulhu and Skeletron from comfortable distances, avoiding dangerous contact hitboxes. It comfortably outclasses standard metal broadswords and rivals the Starfury in exploratory utility. In late progression, it is an essential ingredient in crafting Zenith. Legendary is the premier reforge, boosting damage, swing speed, size, and critical strike chance.
Trivia
- Real sword shrine sprites drop this weapon 98% of the time, with the remaining 2% producing Terragrim.
- Beams launched by the sword do not trigger immunity frames that hinder subsequent projectile weapons.
