Terraria is full of all weapons, but the best weapon you can get in the game by far is the Zenith. This is a weapon you get at the end of your playthrough, and it is one you get to say you have. When you finally craft this amazing weapon, you won’t have any other bosses left to fight because it takes a lot just to be able to craft it.
The accessories are the Warrior Emblem, Berserker’s Glove, Destroyer Emblem, Fire Gauntlet, Magma Skull, Putrid Scent, Celestial Stone, and the Stinger Necklace. Every one of these boosts damage, size, and speed.
Not only do they boost the weapon, but most of them also boost other things like critical strike chance or even defense. These accessories are helpful in almost every way possible, but the downside is that you must get many items to craft these. All the accessories in this list are the best you can get in the game.
1. Warrior Emblem
How to get: Has a 25% chance to drop from the Wall of Flesh.
The Warrior Emblem is by far the easiest to get on this list. All you need to do is go and defeat the Wall of Flesh until you get it. It has a 25% chance of dropping from him, so all you need to do is fight him a max of 4 times, and you will get it.
Once you set up a hell bridge, you can farm him until you get all the items he drops.
It gives you a 15% increase in your melee damage which is exactly what you need when using the Zenith. It will greatly boost your damage and ensure you can destroy pretty much anything in your path.
You can craft it into other stuff later, but the Warrior Emblem will probably give the best melee bonus out of any other accessory.
2. Berserker’s Glove
How to get: It is crafted by combining a Power Glove with Flesh Knuckles at a Tinkerer’s Workshop.
To get this item, you will need to go through many steps. We only said that you need a Power Glove and Flesh Knuckles, but you will need a couple more items to make those.
All the items aren’t the rarest in the game, but they are pretty tedious to find. Once you get this overpowered accessory, it will be worth all your time getting it.
It increases a ton of stuff like speed, knockback, and the size of your weapon. Having your Zenith to the max level will boost your weapon to its limits. Not to mention if you have the melee armor equipped. This accessory is a must-have if you are using a Zenith.
3. Destroyer Emblem
How to get: It is crafted by combining an Avenger Emblem with the Eye of the Golem at a Tinkerer’s Workshop.
This is another Emblem, but the damage scaling isn’t as good as the Warrior Emblem. The upside is that you have an 8% increased critical strike chance.
This means that you will deal more damage more often. The damage scaling isn’t the best, but the critical hits will compensate for it. It is harder to get than the other Emblems but worth getting.
If you have these three accessories equipped at once, you will get a huge boost to your damage and all-around stats for your sword.
The other accessories below will be hard to beat because you only have a certain number of slots. You will need to choose wisely which ones you want to have equipped at once.
4. Fire Gauntlet
How to get: It is crafted by combining a Magma Stone and a Mechanical Glove at a Tinkerer’s Workshop.
This is our favorite accessory when it comes to swords because it gives you a lot in one accessory. You get increased knockback, size, and an auto-swing mode.
You also get a 12% melee damage increase, and it also inflicts fire damage with every swing of your weapon. This is helpful to deal extra damage when not hitting the enemy.
This is one of the best accessories you can get for the Zenith or any melee weapon. It has some of the best stat boosts of any other accessory and is worth the grind to get all the pieces for it. It is not easy, so be prepared for a long ride to craft this thing.
5. Magma Skull
How to get: It is crafted by combining a Magma Stone and an Obsidian Skull at a Tinkerer’s Workshop.
This item is not as good as the Fire Gauntlets, but it will suffice until you can get it. It only has 2 buffs, and it is a pretty good item. You can inflict fire damage with your attacks, granting immunity to fire blocks. It isn’t the best item in the world, but it will hold you over until you can get something better.
It is easy to get, and you can craft it early in your playthrough. You obviously won’t have the Zenith when you craft it, but you can at least have it when you finally make it. It also works well with other melee weapons, so take advantage of it when possible.
6. Putrid Scent
How to get: It has a 20% drop chance from a Corrupted Mimic in the underground Corruption.
You won’t find this item until you get into Hard Mode. You also can’t get it if you have a Crimson World. It is found by defeating a Corrupted Mimic in the Underground Corruption, but you aren’t guaranteed to get it immediately.
It has a 20% drop chance, so you must farm them for a bit if you aren’t lucky enough to get it on your first try.
It gives you a 5% damage boost and a critical strike chance. It also makes it so that enemies are less likely to target you. This is good if you want to explore certain areas with many enemies. It is great for the Zenith because you get critical and damage boosts with it.
7. Celestial Stone
How to get: It is crafted by combining a Sun and Moon Stone at a Tinkerer’s Workshop.
This item is one of the coolest in the game. There is a higher version of this called the Celestial Shell, but this will suffice because it gives the same bonuses either way.
It gives you minor boosts to damage, melee speed, critical strike chance, life regeneration, mining speed, and minion knockback. It is worth getting because of all the bonuses it gives.
You won’t get this until late Hard Mode, so once you find the Sun and Moon Stones, keep them to make this amazing accessory. It helps boost your Zenith a ton and is worth all the time you spend crafting it.
8. Stinger Necklace
How to get: It is crafted by combining a Shark Tooth Necklace with Honey Comb at a Tinkerer’s Workshop.
This is another item that isn’t the greatest, but it is a good one. It is good for fighting enemies with armor. It increases your armor penetration by 5 and then douses you in honey when damaged.
It also releases bees to attack your enemy as well. It is not the greatest accessory, but it is worth crafting.
Your Zenith will do a ton of extra damage to any armored enemy, and the sheer distance the sword can travel is insane. If you haven’t used the Zenith yet, craft it for yourself.
How to Craft the Zenith
The Zenith is the Zenith of all the weapons in Terraria, and if you don’t know how to craft it, you are in for a wild ride. You will need 10 different specific Swords from all points in the game. You will need the starting sword to the endgame swords. Every single one is extremely important to complete the full sword.
Here are all the Swords needed to craft the Zenith:
- Copper Shortsword
- Enchanted Sword
- Bee Keeper
- Starfury
- Seedler
- The Horseman’s Blade
- Influx Waver
- Star Wrath
- Meowmere
- Terra Blade
Remember that all the swords aren’t easy to get since they are crafted from random materials or farmed from a specific enemy or boss. They are only found in certain worlds, so you might not even have one sword type in your playthrough. If that is the case, you will likely need to go to a different world to find it.
