Use
The Forbidden Oathblade is a craftable Hardmode broadsword that autoswings and is the direct upgrade to the Bladecrest Oathsword and the Old Lord Claymore. When swung, it fires a spinning purple scythe that travels at a moderate speed, pierces twice and dissipates on tile contact. Critical hits with the sword cause a purple explosion that deals 200% of the weapon's damage. Both the sword and scythes inflict the On Fire! and Shadowflame debuffs.
Its best modifier is Legendary.
