Ice Blade attacking Target Dummies.

The Ice Blade is a sword that is found in Frozen Chests in the Ice biome, Frozen Crates, and Boreal Crates. It fires an "icy bolt" projectile when swung, at no mana or ammunition cost. The projectile does the same amount of damage as the sword itself but has a cooldown of 55 frames, or about 0.9 seconds. The projectile also emits a small amount of light, which lingers briefly after it shatters. The light level is roughly on par with an Ice Torch.

Its best modifier is Legendary.

Notes

• While the cooldown is active, the player is unable to switch items, but can continue swinging the blade.
• A small particle effect and the mana recharge "blip" will notify the player of a recharged ice bolt.
• The Ice Blade is capable of autoswing. It will swing in the direction of the last fired projectile.
• On the , this weapon deals 18 damage without modifiers instead of 17. Whether this is intended or not is unknown.

Tips

• This can be a good early game melee weapon, because of its autoswing, 17 damage, and projectile.

Trivia

• The Ice Blade makes the same noise as the Ice Elemental when its projectile is fired.
• This weapon has a more powerful version called the Frostbrand.
