The Sword is one of the primary starter weapons available at the beginning of Megabonk. As a reliable and easy-to-use melee weapon, it is the default choice for the character Sir Oofie.

The Sword is not only a solid weapon for early runs but also a crucial tool for progression, as it is required to unlock two other powerful weapons.

Strategy and Synergies

The Sword is a straightforward weapon that excels at clearing enemies directly in front of the player. Its wide, sweeping arc can hit multiple targets at once.

Upgrade Path: The most effective upgrades for the Sword are Size (to increase the width of its slash arc) and Projectile Count (to add more slashes per attack). Knockback is also a valuable defensive upgrade, pushing enemies away to create breathing room.
Key Synergies:
- Sir Oofie (Character): As Sir Oofie's default weapon, the Sword pairs perfectly with his tanky nature. Sir Oofie's high survivability allows him to remain in close combat, maximizing the Sword's effectiveness.
- Melee Tomes: The Sword benefits greatly from any Tomes that increase general Melee Damage or Attack Speed, allowing it to clear hordes much faster.

Upgrades

The Sword can receive upgrades in the following stats upon leveling up:

Damage
Projectile Count (Adds more slashes)
Knockback
Size (Increases the arc of the slash)

Related Unlocks

The Sword is a key progression weapon required to unlock the following:

Axe: Unlocked by killing 2,000 enemies with the Sword.
Dexecutioner: Unlocked by killing 12,500 enemies with the Sword.
