The True Night's Edge is a Hardmode sword. It has the second highest base damage of any Pre-Plantera sword. On Mobile, it has the highest base damage of any Pre-Plantera sword. It is also a stronger version of the Night's Edge, doing more damage and firing a glowing, spinning, green sword projectile called "Night Beam" in the direction of the cursor. Because this ability has a short cooldown, not every swing of the sword launches a Night Beam. The True Night's Edge is one of the ingredients necessary to craft the Terra Blade.
On the Desktop,
Mobile, and
versions, the True Night's Edge is capable of autoswing.
Its best modifier is Legendary.

Notes[edit | edit source]
- On the
Desktop version, the projectile that the blade shoots does 1.5× damage compared to the blade itself.
- Due to their similar properties and counterpart characteristics, the True Night's Edge can be compared to the True Excalibur:
- The True Night's Edge does
50% (
30%) more damage, but is only 63% as fast. The Light Beam, the glowing sword projectile fired by the True Excalibur, can go through one block-wide gaps, both horizontally and vertically, while the Night Beam can pass through solid one block-thick walls if standing directly adjacent. It cannot be fired vertically through ceilings or floors.
- Because it spins, the Night Beam effectively hits more enemies than the Light Beam. However, the Light Beam can be launched more often and moves at a faster speed.
- The True Excalibur has a
8% (
20%) lower DPS as it may swing faster but has less damage than the True Night's Edge. Note that DPS is merely a rough estimate and far from being a reliable stat for comparison.
- The True Night's Edge does
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- The Night Beam seems to resemble a regular Night's Edge colored green, rather than a True Night's Edge.
- The beam color resembles that of Cursed Flames.
- Unlike most projectile swords, the True Night's Edge fires a spinning projectile instead of a straight one.
- The True Night's Edge resembles the old sprite for the Night's Edge, with duller shading.
- The True Night's Edge is the item referenced in the foil Terraria badge.
