As Kida said, do be patient for a Solar Eclipse. It's worth it when you get a Broken Hero Sword and the difference between the two weapons are pertty good. If not, you could always go into the Hardmode Dungeon and kill enough Skeletons to get a Keybrand. Mine did 69 damage when I reforged it into Legendary, so it's a good weapon to use if you don't have a Broken Hero Sword yet.
