How to Get the Dark Sword in Stardew Valley
In Stardew Valley’s 1.4 update, ConcernedApe introduced several exciting additions, including new items, buildings, and relationship events. Among these is the Dark Sword, a powerful weapon that was originally in the game since version 1.0 but only became accessible with the 1.4 update. This guide will walk you through how to get the Dark Sword in Stardew Valley.
Where to Get the Dark Sword?
To obtain the Dark Sword, head to the newly added Quarry Mine dungeon from the 1.4 update. You’ll find the entrance to this dungeon within the Quarry. Alternatively, you can also find the Dark Sword in the dungeon floors of the regular mine located in the mountains.
Inside the Quarry Mine or the regular mine, focus on defeating Haunted Skulls, the new enemies introduced in this update. These Haunted Skulls have a chance to drop the Dark Sword, so continue farming them until you get the sword
What Does the Dark Sword Do?
The Dark Sword is a Level 8 weapon featuring a Vampiric Enchantment, which can be swapped out at the Forge or Mini-Forge. Here are its key stats:
- Damage: 30-45
- Critical Strike Chance: 5%
- Speed: -5
- Weight: +5
- Special Effect: 8% chance to restore health with each hit
- Sell Price: 400g
As an early-game weapon, the Dark Sword offers strong damage and a health-restoring effect, making it valuable for new players. However, if you’re in the endgame, the Galaxy Sword is a more powerful choice.
