Obsidian Swordfish



The Obsidian Swordfish is a Hardmode spear. It has the second-highest base damage of any spear (beaten only by the North Pole). However, it is very short compared to other Hardmode spears. It is obtained via fishing in lava, by using any lava fishing method (including lava bait or Lavaproof Fishing Hook) during Hardmode, or  only by using the Hotline Fishing Hook.

The Obsidian Swordfish has an extraordinarily high base critical strike chance of 24% as opposed to the usual 4%. This gives it not only the highest base critical strike chance of any melee weapon, but also the second highest of any weapon, tied with the and surpassed only by the Sniper Rifle.

Tips

Trivia
