Talk:Broken Hero Sword

Shouldn't there be a hero sword? if you fix the broken one somehow?

-- No and yes; The "hero swords" are the ones you craft the broken ones with. I'd suggest you refer to the Broken Hero Sword page. It will explain in the Trivia section; it may clarify your "suggestion".

The trivia is getting a little out of hand.
People are listing every broken sword in every game, book, and movie on here. It really should be trimmed down, but I'm not sure what should and should not be kept, as I'm not familiar with all the 'references' mentioned. --Xolroc (talk) 20:36, 8 July 2014 (UTC)
 * The trivia section on Broken Hero Sword has always been out of hand - and that's coming from someone who has added to it. Sometimes I wonder if another piece of trivia should be that the item has an uncanny ability to generate it. Aside from "mowing the grass" now and then (clearing the section) a solution could perhaps be to add an ambiguous entry as on Ice Queen with something like "broken swords used as weapons are common in fantasy".

 * I've fought off a few persistent ones by adding comments to the source of the page (see Staff of Discord for an example), which may be applicable here; the commonness of broken swords is not worth noting on the actual page, I don't think. --Xolroc (talk) 03:09, 9 July 2014 (UTC)

Starbound reference
I don't think this item is a reference of Starbound. They just wrote the same thing on the concerned page: This item could be a cross-reference to the Broken Hero Sword item in Terraria. --  Dinoxel  discussion  00:54, 18 March 2015 (UTC)


 * I think you're right about this item not being a reference; the Starbound Wiki page you linked to was created on December 9, 2013, while the update containing the item in Terraria was released about two months before that. I guess it's possible that the Starbound version was put in as a reference to Terraria (though I doubt this too), but that doesn't seem like it would have much relevance to this wiki. So, I removed that point of trivia.
