Enchanted Sword Shrine



An Enchanted Sword Shrine is a terrain feature that consists of a long, mostly one-block-wide vertical shaft leading from the surface or slightly below it down to a small cave. The cave's background is made of Flower Walls and it features a small hill with pools of water on either side. Atop the hill rests a breakable background sword sprite. The sprite has a 2/3 chance of being a fake sword and a 1/3 chance of being a real sword. Real sword sprites then have a 9/10 chance of dropping the Enchanted Sword and a 1/10 chance of dropping the Arkhalis.

There will always be 1 shrine in small worlds, 3 shrines in medium worlds, and 4 Shrines in large worlds. They generate at least 20% of the map width away from the world's center in the surface or underground layer, below any biome that has a surface layer made of dirt and stone.

Tips

 * The shaft can be revealed by light particles that fall downwards through blocks. There are many weapons which spawn projectiles of this kind, for instance, the Dark Lance, Starfury, Jester's Arrow, Meteor Staff, Solar Eruption, or Flying Dragon. Some enemy projectiles can also reveal the shaft, e.g. those fired from the Goblin Sorcerer.
