Light's Bane

Light's Bane is a broadsword melee weapon crafted from 10 Demonite Bars at an Iron Anvil. It is notable for being unusually fast for a broadsword. Along with the Demon Bow, it is typically one of the first items a player would make after defeating the Eye of Cthulhu, since neither of them require Shadow Scales to be crafted. It is slightly smaller than most other broadswords.

Tips

 * It is actually slightly better to craft a War Axe of the Night, because it deals 4 more damage, doubles as an axe, and swings repeatedly when you hold down the button. The Breaker is even better, dealing 7 more damage, but its slow use time makes it a less efficient weapon. However, you should still craft the sword, as it is cheaper to obtain, and could help you in early game.
