Everything you need to know
General Information
The Tungsten Broadsword is an early-game metal broadsword that performs a short-ranged swinging motion in an arc, damaging enemies behind and in front of the player. It is the alternate ore version of the Silver Broadsword.
One enemy can be pierced at a normal range, although an infinite amount is possible should they line up. The Tungsten Broadsword also has a short reach of three tiles radius. It is incapable of autoswing.
Some weapons emit light while also being capable of inflicting damage against enemies behind a cover, but the Tungsten Broadsword is not included.
Since the Tungsten Broadsword can swing above the player, it is viable for flying and jumping enemies. The resulting damage can also be enhanced by consuming any Flask type.
