The Orange Phaseblade is forged at an Iron Anvil or Lead Anvil by fusing 15 Meteorite Bar ingots with 15 Amber gems. Sourced from Underground Desert fossils or amber gemcorn trees, the blade delivers 26 base melee damage per strike. Its rapid Very fast attack speed of 18 ticks releases warm orange illumination that banishes cavern shadows and reveals lurking hazards across uncharted tunnels. Players exploring the underground desert can craft this blade early if they gather enough amber from fossil silt deposits.
Desert resource synergy and Phasesaber crystallization
While traditional gem blades rely on classic underground gems, this variant rewards miners who process desert fossil deposits through an extractinator. Its swift swing rate provides reliable protection against blood moon swarms and pre-Hardmode dungeon skeletons. Its steady slashing arc keeps cave creatures at distance while conserving resources for boss preparation. In early Hardmode, players can fuse it with 25 Crystal Shard items at a hardmode anvil to forge the Orange Phasesaber. The Legendary prefix remains the ideal modifier for superior swing speed, reach, size, and knockback.
Trivia
Added in version 1.4.0, the Orange Phaseblade expanded the original lightsaber set to incorporate desert amber.
