This Terraria weapon kills extraordinarily fast… The Starlight. When it comes to the melee class, your presented with a whole load of different weapon types throughout the game. Today, we take a look at one of the more unique shortsword style weapons that can deal some unbelievable damage at close range. Been able to take out bosses like the Lunatic Cultist out in sub 20 seconds. The question is, with it been a EoL drop, is it really worth the grind? Enjoy!

We totally need more actual late game shortswords lol
if we had some post moon lord bosses i could see this being useful but it dropping from the empress just makes it weird to use against other stuff because she’s basically post plantera at least
How would it do as a Calamity Infernum weapon? Is it considered True Melee?
I like it because it’s a litteral god rapier
I think this is one of the high risk high reward weapons, where skill is necessary to use.
A little story, i had a crossplay server to play with my friend, but it was laggy as hell, so when we tried to get away from moonlord, his dmg hitbox was there, but the hp hitbox wasn't, so we had to stay near him all the time, that's when we remember the starlight, and tell you what, it made the fight SO much easier
Haven’t messed with it since 1.4 first dropped
Full turtle/beetle set, a few defense and damage accessories all with menacing, stand completely still in skeletrons dungeon and completely destroy the cultist.
I'm still upset that EoL has a summoning drop that's exclusive to her bs 1-hit mode.
If it weren't for Youtube, I wouldn't even know it exists, much less have any ideas of my own that would work to earn it.
The Terrarian is the best Melee weapon.
Considering I play nothing but melee class, and it happens to be my favorite type of sword and it has pretty colors, whats not not like besides max melee speed and oh boy
SSSSIIIIILLLLVVVVVEEEEEERRRR CCCCCHHHHHAAAAARRRRIIIIOOOOTTTT!!!!!!!!!
I used this to kill Moonlord for the first time
as a summoner main, i see no downsides
i actually used the starlight until i got the zenith
Time to turn myself into a glass machinegun
OMG FINALLY SOMEONE TALKS ABOUT MY FAVORITE WEAPON
Starlight is a no brainer upgrade for after plantera to make farming events way easier because if enemies get close to me they evaporate shortly after.
As a dedicated melee only player, I always get the starlight. And I use it on moon lord.
The starlight is my second favourite shortsword
We all love Waffletime 🙂
As a usual melee it's a mediocre choice unless you truly stacked on dmg and evasion with crits ans dmg buffs. While true melee subclass has it as musthave since it's one of the most strongest weapons up to the moonlord paired with HH greatsword
this is a sword that i say is garbage, but i use it unironically for crowd control in my dungeon
ah yes, Starlight, the only rapier-type weapon in the whole game
And it's kinda decent actually.
Wasn't starlight a type of lance? I don't remember but i vaguely remember something about it being a lance could be wrong tho
what's that lamp in the background
As it should! For a consolation prize to soothe the headache that garbage, lightshow ahh fight i had to go thru.
Love this thing. Used it during an expert melee playthrough on Moon Loord and it absolutely shreds
The Starlight feels like an upgrade to the Terragrim tbh, they both fill that same niche of “extreme dps up close, but no range” at their parts of the game
The Starlight seems good and all but the Terra Blade is broken enough already. There's no point wasting time for a brokener weapon when you already have more than enough strength.
Even if you’re doing a full glass cannon setup, if you equip either a star veil or frozen shield you can use it worry free and kill the absolute fuck out of everything
Me who got it in 12: Pathetic
I use starlight along with zenith
The best thing about it is that thanks to its insanely high hit rate (similar to fetid baghnakhs) you don't need a high damage/crit setup to delete enemies. You can go for a tanky setup, and if you want you could swap an accessory for the soaring insignia. With some decent wings you basically have no more need for flying mounts for aireal mobility (except for if you want to stay at a certain height, then a mount would be easier)
I can relate to the luck u had to get this.
Honestly I like never use it because of the range but I’m using a lot of true melee in my current play through so i might use this
"projectile only" boomerangs flails arkhalis literally everything that doesn't swing overhead can be considered a projectile
If you catch the destroyer when it just spawns so that it is curled up, this weapon kills it in roughly a SECOND. Like wth
