Animation of the Terra Blade.

The Terra Blade is a Hardmode sword, and is the highest base damaging sword in the console and mobile versions. It auto-swings (except in the console version), firing a green bolt projectile that costs no Mana or ammunition and can pierce up to two enemies, dissipating upon impacting a third. The beam can travel up to 5000 feet (2500 blocks) at a speed of 67mph. Effects from a Flask will transfer to the sword beam as well.

Its best Modifier is Legendary.

Achievement

Achievement Sword of the Hero Sword of the Hero is the achievement you earn for obtaining the Terra Blade.

Notes

  • The projectile fired by the Terra Blade is referred to as the "Terra Beam" in death messages.
  • The sword can be swung (and it's projectile fired) faster by rapidly clicking, rather than using the autoswing.
  • It can be on par with endgame swords when given a high-level modifier.
  • With no melee speed modifiers the terra beam travels at the same speed as a player riding a unicorn mount on flat ground.
  • Improvements to the weapon's melee speed can increase the velocity of the beam.
  • It is the fastest swinging sword, but not the fastest swinging melee weapon.
