The Exoblade's primary and secondary attack abilities being used against Target Dummies and a Super Dummy.

The Exoblade is a craftable post-Moon Lord endgame melee weapon that autoswings. It has one of the most complex crafting trees of all swords in the Calamity Mod.

When using its primary attack (left-click), it uses a custom overhead swing animation that fires three bright rainbow beams which homes into nearby enemies after 0.4 seconds. Each beam creates a long, infinitely piercing slash upon hitting an enemy, which can hit multiple times. The beams and their slashes deal 46% of the weapon's damage.

When using its secondary attack (right-click), the player holds the sword and dashes in the direction of the cursor for 0.82 seconds. Upon impact with an enemy, the player rebounds and five beam slashes are formed on the struck enemy. The beam slashes from the dash attack deals 150% of the weapon's damage. This attack has a cooldown of one second.

After striking an enemy with the dash attack, the next swing attack within 0.62 seconds will be 50% larger and create a massive explosion which deals 180% of the weapon's damage.

Its best modifier is Godly. It cannot get modifiers that affect size. Ruthless might be preferred if the player already has 100% critical strike chance.
