The Yellow Phaseblade is forged at an Iron Anvil or Lead Anvil by combining 15 Meteorite Bar ingots with 15 Topaz gems. Slashing with a Very fast speed of 18 ticks, it deals 26 base melee damage while emitting vibrant amber-yellow illumination. The weapon requires no ammunition or mana, serving as a reliable primary sword for early cavern exploration. Its radiant swings brighten dark mining tunnels while repelling approaching monsters, helping players navigate dangerous chasms safely during early subterranean spelunking expeditions.
Affordable meteorite defense and Hardmode ascension
Because topaz veins generate frequently across upper underground layers, this weapon is an economical choice for players saving diamonds or rubies for magic gear. It provides dependable defensive stopping power against Blood Moon hordes and cavern crawlers without consuming mana or ammunition. Its wide slashing arc creates a defensive barrier that effectively repels cave bats and slimes in narrow tunnels. When combined with 25 Crystal Shard fragments at a Hardmode anvil, it upgrades into the Yellow Phasesaber. Legendary is the optimal prefix for boosting damage, swing speed, size, and knockback.
Trivia
