one such seed(for 1.4.4.9) is: 2.37971, go to the rightmost living tree (farther right than middle so use conch if possible), the sword is at the bottom of the tree, always spawns with actual sword.Getting the Arkhalis is difficult, as it will only drop as a part of a Developer Set. If looking online for a seed that contains a sword shrine make sure that the seed was not discovered in a past update.

Seeds with sword shrines found before the current version of Terraria will not be guaranteed to contain a shrine in the same location despite the rest of the world being the same.

Therefore, the player can force close the game to reload a previous save and continue doing this until the desired item is obtained.

The background object will generate an item upon its destruction.

The Clentaminator can also be used to provide light, though players should be careful not to spread biomes in locations they did not want. Some light pets that move when the player presses a direction (such as the Wisp pet, shown in the Gallery below) can be used to find the shafts by holding ▼ Down. Additionally, some mount provides a short burst of light particles when summoned, and if timed correctly, activating/deactivating a mount just before landing can send the light particles downwards 5-7 tiles. Some enemy projectiles can also reveal the shaft, e.g. There are many weapons which spawn projectiles of this kind, for instance, the Dark Lance, Starfury, Jester's Arrow, Meteor Staff, Solar Eruption, Zenith, Flying Dragon, Flamelash, Durendal, or Firecracker.

The shaft can be revealed by light particles that fall downwards through blocks.

While Enchanted Sword Shrines are currently only on the PC version, Console version, Mobile version, Old Chinese version, tModLoader version, and tModLoader 1.3-Legacy version, Enchanted Swords can still appear scattered throughout the world in all versions.

The shrine will only rarely spawn below the surface layer and will only ever reach a maximum of 100 tiles in the underground layer.

A Minecart track can go through a shrine, causing the sword to disappear.

If generated under an overhang on the surface, the shaft will cut through midair.

However, at least part of the shaft will always be dirt and uncorrupted grass.

The shrine itself can generate partially or completely Corrupted/ Crimson.

In rare cases, the top of the shaft spawns more than 10 blocks under the ground.

The shrine itself can occasionally spawn on the surface, without a shaft.

It can even go to the top of a Living Tree.

The shaft can go all the way to the surface, making it very easy to notice.

Enchanted Sword Shrines may generate in uncommon ways at times:.

Despite being replaced by the Terragrim, the Arkhalis can still be obtained as a part of the Arkhalis' set.

Although practically guaranteed in normal gameplay, the shaft can only generate with a height of up to 1000 tiles.

Nothing is dropped from the junk sword background object. Upon destroying the enchanted sword in stone, there is a 10% chance to drop the Arkhalis, and otherwise, will drop the Enchanted Sword. The background object has a 67% chance of displaying a junk sword and a 33% chance of displaying an enchanted sword. They generate in the outer two-thirds of the map, and always generate with a 1-tile-wide shaft leading up to the surface. On the Old Chinese version and tModLoader 1.3-Legacy version, multiple shrines may generate in a world, with larger worlds having more available.

Upon destroying the background object, there is a 2% chance to drop the Terragrim, and otherwise, will drop the Enchanted Sword. They generate in the outer two-thirds of the map, and have a 33% chance of generating a 1-tile-wide shaft leading up to the surface.

On the PC version, Console version, Mobile version, and tModLoader version, multiple shrines may generate in a world, with larger worlds having a slight increased chance to generate more, although not guaranteed to generate any. They generate in the surface or underground layers in dirt or stone terrain. Atop the hill rests a sword in stone as a background object. The cave's background is made of Flower Walls and features a small hill with pools of water on either side. They can generate with a narrow shaft leading into the top of the cave. Junk on left (will only generate within shrines on, still generates randomly on all platforms), Enchanted on rightĮnchanted Sword Shrines are terrain features that generate as small caves below the surface.
