The Blood Butcherer attacking Target Dummies.

The Blood Butcherer is a Pre-Hardmode sword crafted solely out of Crimtane Bars. It is the Crimson variant of the Light's Bane, and as such can be used as a substitute for forging the Night's Edge. Although it is noticeably more damaging and larger than the Light's Bane, it attacks slower.

The Blood Butcherer applies the Blood Butchered debuff, causing the afflicted enemy to emit a spurt of blood and lose 4 health per second for a 9 second duration. The damage the Blood Butchered debuff inflicts over time can be stacked additively to a single enemy for up to a maximum of five stacks, causing the afflicted enemy to lose up to 20 health per second with all five stacks of the debuff applied.

Its best modifier is Legendary.
