Amber blade enhancement with underground crystals
The Orange Phasesaber is forged by refining an amber-derived Orange Phaseblade with 25 Crystal Shard pieces at a Mythril Anvil or Orichalcum Anvil. This weapon crackles with intense orange energy, striking foes for 50 base melee damage per blow. Its warm light illuminates subterranean hazards, glowing brightly through dark cavern corridors and liquid pools without ever extinguishing under water.
Continuous swing pacing and prefix optimization
With a Very fast execution speed of 16 ticks and integrated auto-swing, the blade provides dependable front-line defense when exploring newly generated Hardmode biomes. It reliably pushes back agile flyers and cavern crawlers that would otherwise slip past slower polearms. Combining it with Frost armor adds frostbite damage over time to every slash. For players transitioning out of pre-Hardmode gear, it provides a solid melee milestone before tackling mechanical bosses. Reforging to the Legendary prefix delivers the highest damage, size, and critical strike enhancements.
Trivia
- The Orange Phaseblade and Phasesaber were added in update 1.3.0.1 after Amber was introduced as an extractinator gem.
