Drax

The Drax is a unique Hardmode tool that combines the functions of a Drill and Chainsaw, and is the Hallow-tier version of those tools. It is the 2nd strongest tool in the game, just behind the Picksaw, and can free most blocks in a single hit. Adamantite Ore and Mythril Ore still require two hits, as do most furniture items.

The Drax is crafted using all of the Hardmode drills and chainsaws, along with five souls of Might, Fright, and Sight.

The Drax is the only drill with knockback. Its best Modifier prefix is Godly.

Tips

 * Due to its rapid attack speed, high damage and knockback, it can easily serve as a good melee weapon for close-range targets.
 * Though the most powerful tool currently in the game, it may be a bother as unintended breakings are more likely, since it can break every breakable object, apart from walls, and do it instantly! Prior to 1.2, it also had the functionality of the hammer, so it could break walls as often as anything else, which would be a bother to someone decorating their town buildings.

Trivia

 * "Drax" is a portmanteau of words, drill and axe, because it can perform the actions of both.
 * This, along with the Hallowed Repeater, was the only item forged from boss souls that is of red rarity, despite, arguably, that it used to be the most difficult craftable item to obtain in Terraria.
 * Getting this tool in the 1.1 version could have been considered a top accomplishment, as the player had to kill Skeletron Prime, The Twins and The Destroyer each at least once to obtain the once required souls.
