The Forbidden Oathblade is a craftable Hardmode broadsword that autoswings and is the upgrade of both the Bladecrest Oathsword and the Old Lord Claymore. When swung, it fires a demonic scythe that collides with terrain and pierces up to two targets. Both the sword and the fired projectiles inflict the On Fire! and Shadowflame debuffs. Critical hits additionally summon purple explosions on the target.

Its best modifier is Legendary.

Notes

  • The explosion generated by critical hits deals exactly 200% of the weapon's base damage, can not critically strike, does not damage nearby targets, and cannot be modified by any means.
