Enchanted Sword (item)

The Enchanted Sword is an extremely rare sword. It fires a sword projectile that costs no ammunition or mana, and both the sword and projectiles produce lingering sparks that emit large amounts of light. The sword cannot be auto-swung. Its projectiles can fire roughly every 1-2 seconds.

The Enchanted Sword can only be obtained by breaking a background item that has a chance of being generated randomly on world creation in the Cavern layer. The background item appears as the hilt of a sword protruding from rock. There are two different breakable background objects that look similar, but only one of them will drop the sword.

The Beam Sword seems to be a stronger version of this weapon.

Trivia

 * May be a reference to The Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past, where the Master Sword looked similar, fired beams, was pulled from a pedestal, and there were fake swords en route to the real one. The concept of a sword being stuck into stone originates from The Sword and The Stone, in which King Arthur was the only person who was able to pull a sword from its resting place in a stone. A sword named after Excalibur itself, the sword given to King Arthur by the Lady of the Lake, is also present in the game.
 * The design bears strong resemblance to that of the Enchanted Boomerang.
 * The Enchanted Sword is the only projectile-firing sword obtainable before Hardmode.
