One sword to rule them all

The term Zenith can be defined as the point at which something or someone is at its most strength. And that’s why no name fits better for the most powerful sword in Terraria, a final unstoppable weapon. When attacking with the Zenith Sword, it splits into the swords needed for the crafting process and unleashes a deadly vortex. With a damage of 190 per hit and an extremely high attack frequency, no opponent in Terraria will give you any trouble once you have Zenith. You can shred down the healthbar of bosses like the Eye of Cthulhu in mere seconds.

However, it’s a long road, paved with tough battles, until you can finally get your hands on this masterpiece. Zenith is assembled from a total of 10 swords on a Mythril or Orichalcum anvil. Many of these swords are rare drops from difficult bosses. Here is a list of all the swords you will need and how to get them.

Zenith Crafting Guide

Terraria Copper Sword

Copper Shortsword

The copper shortsword is the first, and with a damage of 5, the weakest sword in the game. Its frontal stab attack makes it relatively useless against flying and jumping enemies. However, its high attack frequency is helpful against enemies on the ground. You can craft it from 7 copper ingots. Unfortunately, if the generated world has tin instead of copper, you can’t use the tin sword, but have to get copper in a new world. Otherwise, you can also try to get copper ore by fishing or killing slimes.

Terraria Enchanted Sword

Enchanted Sword

The Enchanted Sword is a broadsword with a damage of 23 that shoots a projectile in the shape of a sword when attacking. This sword can be found in sword shrines found throughout the world, mostly in caves. If you destroy these shrines with a hammer, the drop chance is 98%. However, some of the shrines are fake and do not drop the Enchanted Sword. Another way to get the sword is to go fishing. You can catch a Gold Chest, which has a 2% chance of containing an Enchanted Sword.

Terraria Bee Keeper Sword

Bee Keeper Sword

The Bee Keeper Sword deals 30 damage and summons up to three small bees when attacking, which also attack enemies. This sword is dropped by the boss Queen Bee with a probability of 33%. You can find this boss in jungle areas and summon her by destroying a bee larva there.

Starfury

Starfury is a 22 damage sword that, when wielded, summons a star that falls from the sky and deals 44 damage when it hits enemies. This sword can be found in Skyware Chests. These are located on flying islands. If you don’t have wings, you can try to soar through the sky with a Gravity Potion and find one of the flying islands.

Terra Blade Terraria

Terrablade

The Terrablade deals 95 damage and shoots a projectile that deals the same amount of damage. To craft the Terrablade you must find the three swords True Nights Edge, True Excalibur, and Broken Hero Sword and join them together on a Mythril or Orichalcum Anvil.

Terraria Seedler

Seedler

The Seedler, a 50 damage sword, shoots a grenade-like Seedler Nut when attacking, which shoots Seedler Thorns in all directions when it explodes.

The sword is dropped by the final boss of Vanilla Terraria, the Moonlord, with a probability of about 10%.
