Copper shortsword for the win

Admittedly, you do feel really cool when you earn the right to hold the brilliant blue blade in your hands.

But the Terra Blade is better.
Epic design, a long(100% worth it) grind to get, and it shoots sword beams that go halfway across the map!

A shame that brilliant blue blade eventually breaks.

A Gold Sword is better than silly breakable blue sword!

Iconic? Yes. Powerful? Not really. Like the Copper Shortsword.

Copper shortsword is already better because it doesn't break.

I once looked around and asked on the minecraft forums to see if there was a no durability mod, responce? "It would break the balance of the game!" Yeah, what balance? The diamond sword is so bloody hard to get and it's not even that much better than the golden sword, sure, that's balance.

Golden Sword: 33 uses, +4 damage, about 30 enchantability
Diamond Sword: 1,286 uses, +7 damage, 12 enchantability

(Terraria) Wooden Sword: 7 damage, infinite durability.
(Minecraft) Diamond Sword: 7 damage, very finite durability.

The second easiest sword to get in Terraria is better than Minecraft's strongest and hardest to get sword.

Minecraft's current strongest boss- 300HP
Terraria's current strongest boss-50,000 HP

You mean 80,000 HP?
An average Hardmode mob has 300 HP
