Sky Fracture

Hallowed weapon assembly and triple spectral blade bursts

Crafted at a Mythril Anvil or Orichalcum Anvil by combining a Magic Missile, Light Shard gems from the Hallowed Desert, and Soul of Light materials. When used, the weapon summons three radiant swords that materialize behind the caster and launch in rapid sequence toward the cursor position. The blades strike with high projectile velocity, dealing 38 base magic damage with 6 knockback. It boasts an elevated base critical strike chance of 24%, consuming 17 mana per burst.

Early Hardmode burst magic and mechanical boss duels

The precision burst and swift projectile flight make this wand effective against fast-moving aerial targets, including Queen Slime, Retinazer, and Skeletron Prime. Alongside the Crystal Serpent and Meteor Staff, it represents top-tier early Hardmode magic weaponry before defeating mechanical bosses. Its elevated critical strike rating synergizes effectively with magic accessories like the Sorcerer Emblem. Mythical is the optimal prefix, increasing damage, projectile velocity, and critical strike rate while diminishing mana consumption.

Trivia

• Although styled as a broadsword, the Sky Fracture functions strictly as a magic casting weapon and cannot be swung in melee.
• It forms an early Hardmode thematic counterpart to the Onyx Blaster, which utilizes Dark Shards from the Corrupt or Crimson deserts.
