While doing some testing for a dungeon guardiant% run, I was trying to decide whether or not Minishark was the strongest choice of weapon or if a prehardmode sword would have been better.
As it turns out, DPS meter displays some very strange values for a variet of prehardmode melee items. Items that I tested and found had strange values were the: Muramasa, Blade of Grass, Light's Bane, Volcano (rip fiery greatsword), Tin Hammer, Falcon Blade, Mandible Blade, Candy Cane Sword, Bladed Glove, and the winner being Pearlwood sword clocking in at 155 DPS (point of reference: zenith is around 30)
Edit: Christmas Tree Sword got to298 331!
This only affects the displayed damage and not the damage actually given.
This was all tested with no armor/accessories (dps meter on shellphone) + no buffs on journey mode so I could grab items and not worry about instantaneous murder. Difficulty set to normal.
