The Bloodthorn Blade is a Pre-Hardmode broadsword that is dropped by the Vinewrath Bane. When swung, it fires a slow-moving blood wave that does not pierce. If the player is below 50% health, it will cause the sword to fire blood waves more frequently. Upon dealing critical hits, it inflicts the Poisoned and Withering Leaf debuffs.

Its best modifier is Legendary.

Use Time Gains

It also has the ability to gain increased use time based on the amount of health the player has lost. However, this will only occur if the player is below 50% health. The amount of use time gained is listed as follows:

Use time	% of Health
33	50%
30	33%
28	25%
