Tips

• The damage of the Palm Wood Sword is equivalent to that of the following swords: Boreal Wood Sword, Iron Shortsword, Rich Mahogany Sword. Obtaining one of these instead may require less effort.
• Once the player has collected some Acorns and sand, they can grow palm trees closer to their base by planting them in sand. Naturally, palm trees only grow at the Ocean and Oasis biomes.

Trivia

• The Palm Wood Sword's sprite is very similar to that of the Wooden Sword; however, there are a few changes, the most obvious being that it has a lighter color. Also, the handle is slightly different in that its quillons are horizontal, whereas the Wooden Sword's shorter quillons stand parallel to the blade.
