That actually looks quite beautiful.
Are you using a custom holdstyle and usestyle?

Some messy code makes it do a thing when it charges up and I tinker around with hitboxes and textures to make the charged attacked visual. Otherwise its a normal modded sword. If/when I release you can always take a gander xD

You're actually changing the sword's hitbox and not using a custom projectile for the swing?

Nice. How does the weapon work exactly? I think if it'd charge while selected and if swung does this attack (and dont charge afterwards for a while, to represent having to resheat your weapon) and if you continue to attack, it just swings normally.

Using UseItemHitbox method to mess with hitbox sizes and player.attackCD = 0; so it can hit multiple enemies.

Think of it as a very flashy psycho knife you have to stand still to use.

Oh, i meant mechanics on the players end ^^. Since i dont mod terraria these things dont really tell me anything.

Yeah it functions just like a normal weapon, just if you stand still for about 2 seconds the next single attack is empowered (any extra attacks revert to normal again)
