If it were to be a UBER rare drop from a very UBER rare monster, and if it were to be the strongest blade in the game.... that would really be fun! :D
 
Also, I have a small request(s):

No more "10/10 g8 m8" posts. They are annoying, and don't seem to add anything to discussion. Even simply saying "I support!" would be better. The way you guys are saying it makes it sound like you only want this because of the concept, and not because it's an actual, decent, balanced weapon.

Also, no more "This is joke thread" posts, either. They also don't add to discussion, and the OP clearly states that it's not a joke.

Finally, STOP TAGGING THE DEVS. They don't usually check threads they get tagged in unless it's by a mod, and even then it's not the usual thing. A dev needs to find it by themself.

Any more attempts to do the following will lead to being reported, with a link to this post.
 
I need to check this section of the forums more...this idea is awesome! Although by the time you actually get a broken hero sword it would probably be wiser just to make a True Night's Edge but I guess everyone has their own preferences. Still, I'd craft it just to add to my collection or to mess around with it.

i supported already and i think it really should be added so everyone get out their:

Now and support the TRUE COPPER SHORTSWORD
 
If this is actually going to be on 1.3, I'm gonna throw myself into a pit of lava.

Actually... Nah, that's a pretty bad idea. I'm just gonna say "yay".
 
Am I gonna join in the "Best idea ever, lol" thing? No. As an actual idea, the concept is interesting. Do I think it's an alright idea? Yes. Looking at it from the standpoint of an actual item, and nothing outside, the idea is good enough. Could it use some balancing? Not much that I can see. Maybe just a slight damage deduction, as it is just a Copper Shortsword that you need to mix with a Broken Hero Sword.

Otherwise, yes, this idea is a pretty good one.
 
Okay, I have been holding in this rant for a while, but I just got sick of it.

You are saying that, because the copper shortsword is easier to obtain than Excalibur, the true shortsword should be weakened. That argument, while it may SOUND good in your head, becomes just plain silly when you apply it to other weapons.
  • The nights edge can be obtained before hardmode, but all hardmode ore swords before you get adamantite are weaker than nights edge, so nights edge should be nerfed.
    • Also the nights edge, the NE is easier to obtain than Excalibur, but the true nights edge has the second highest damage of all melee weapons in the game, surpassed only by the Terra Blade, so true nights edge should be nerfed.
  • The Terra Blade itself can be obtained earlier than many swords such as the horseman's blade and Christmas tree sword and yet has the highest damage out of all swords, so the Terra Blade should be nerfed.
  • The horseman's blade can be obtained more easily than Christmas tree sword, and yet the HB has slightly higher damage, autoswing that the CTS lacks, and as Yrimir demonstrated, can be used with some low-level monster statures and one second timers to kill all of the hardmode bosses at once solo without healing. The horseman's blade as such is massively overpowered and should be nerfed.
You can see my point: Your arguement simply does not work when applied to other weapons ("It's easier to obtain than this other weapon, so it needs to be weaker than that weapon!"). In conclusion, if I unscrewed the top of your head and replaced your brain with a potato, you would probably be smarter than you were before. Good day to you all.
Also Rainfall, please un-nerf the shortsword, considering I just tore apart the entire argument of the only person who wanted it nerfed.
But Nigjt's Edge (with Hallowed Armor) can pretty much outsmart Excalibur in 1.2 then you find Chlorophyte Swords. So that leaves one purpose for the Excalibur and Night's Edge further on: To make the Terra Blade

I don't think you did your research well
