Template:Pc only The Obsidian Swordfish is a Hardmode spear weapon. It has the second-highest base damage of any spear (beaten only by the North Pole), however it is very short compared to other Hardmode spears. It is obtained via Fishing in Lava, which requires the Hotline Fishing Hook. Chance to catch it is 1:7 with 50% Fishing power and above.

The Obsidian Swordfish has an extremely high base 24% critical strike chance as opposed to the usual 4%, the highest of all melee weapons and second-highest of all weapons in the game.

Like all spears, its best modifier is Godly.

Trivia

• The Obsidian Swordfish is one of the few fish that can be used as a tool or weapon. The other fish include the Swordfish, the Purple Clubberfish, the Reaver Shark, the Sawtooth Shark and the Rockfish.
• The world does not need to be in Hardmode in order to catch this item, however a Hotline Fishing Hook is required, which can only be obtained in Hardmode worlds.
• Ironically enough, it's used as a spear, rather than a sword, as its name suggests.
