The creatures hide metal in their flesh and their blood flows like sludge. A simple sword will not do here. -Item description

Falxes are curved weapons used in combat . They become available when the player is able to smelt metal into molds. In version 1.17, the falx replaced the old sword weapon. However, some rare weapons still look like swords, most notably the Blackguard shortsword and Forlorn Hope estoc.

*Despite its name, the Blackguard shortsword has the same attack range (2.5m) as the other swords.

Note: The Silver Falx and the Gold Falx are as powerful and durable as the Steel Falx. Usually, gold and silver items are as powerful as their copper counterpart and have a very low durability.

  • Copper Falx
  • Forlorn Hope estoc

Purchasing

Usage

The falx is a weapon available to players from the casting stage of the game.

Combat

Attacking a mob (melee combat): place the falx in an active hotbar slot and press or hold left mouse button to strike the target. The sword has an attack range of 2.5 m.

Harvesting

The falx is not (generally) used to harvest materials, but can be used to harvest wood and leaf blocks.

Selling

You can sell a falx that you have crafted or looted to a Treasure Hunter Trader ː

Storage

The falx can be placed against a wall, stored in containers and placed on tool racks .

History

Prior to version 1.17.0 , this weapon was called the "sword" and had a straight blade.

Lore

If this weapon is named a Falx, it is probably because of the inventor Jonas Falx.

Item description :
The creatures hide metal in their flesh and their blood flows like sludge. A simple sword will not do here.

This description suggests that the weapon was created to fight drifters in a more efficient way than with ordinary swords. We do not know if Jonas Falx designed the weapon himself.

Jonas Falx is a very important character in the game's story. Several Lore Books mention his name, but most important of all is the five-part narrative entitled Reflection .
