The True Excalibur attacking Target Dummies.

The True Excalibur is a Hardmode sword that is a direct upgrade to the Excalibur. It is one of the ingredients necessary to craft the Terra Blade.

The True Excalibur possesses a stronger version of the Excalibur's effect, adding an additional pink aura past the existing yellow aura from its predecessor, which both follow along the sword's swing arc to increase its effective range. When the sword or its auras strike enemies, a bright pink and yellow flash is created.

Its best modifier is Legendary.

Notes

• Unlike regular broadswords, the True Excalibur can only hit up to six targets per swing.
• The True Excalibur will always knock enemies away from the player, regardless of the direction it is swung.

Trivia

• Although the True Excalibur and True Night's Edge were previously comparable due to their similarities and being obtained in the same place in progression, changes in 1.4.4 have made them much more distinct weapons.
