Zenith



The Zenith is a Hardmode, post-Moon Lord melee weapon that is crafted using a variety of swords from across game progression. The Zenith possesses autoswing and can hit enemies through blocks.

Using it will cause the sprites of its component swords to fly towards enemies within a 20-block radius of the cursor and circle back in large arcing motions. This attack will pass through solid blocks, and three swords will appear per use. All of the sword sprites deal the full damage of the weapon. The Zenith has the most complex crafting tree in Terraria, using 18 different base items (10 crafting operations), surpassing both the Cell Phone which uses 13 items and the Ankh Shield which uses 11.
