Farming life simulator Stardew Valley has a ton of weapons that players can use in combat, including the powerful but still delightfully cute Meowmere Sword added in the 1.6 update.
There are a lot of enemies lurking inside the mines in Stardew Valley that you can encounter throughout your adventures. This means that having a particularly useful weapon is crucial to staying down there longer by keeping these foes at bay.
The Meowmere Sword is a powerful option that has a constant damage range and provides useful stat bonuses while equipped. This guide helps players learn how to get this adorable new weapon in Stardew Valley.
The Meowmere Sword
This is a new level-four secret sword that players can find following the release of the 1.6 update to the popular farming life simulator. The Meowmere Sword is hidden somewhere inside the mines or volcano areas of Stardew Valley, according to The Gamer.
This particular weapon's name is a homage to the sword that bears the same name from the popular game, Terraria.
Many fans of the latter will not only be familiar with the Meowmere Sword but also enjoy the few Easter eggs that you can find while looking for it in Stardew Valley.
Getting the Meowmere Sword
What makes the Meowmere Sword different from other swords in the game is that you cannot buy it from a merchant or get it as a drop from monsters. There is only one way to acquire this unique weapon, which is through ritual sacrifice.
You first need to get an Ancient Doll that can be acquired by digging up Artifact Spots throughout Stardew Valley. It can also be gotten through Fishing Treasure Chests or cracking open Artifact Troves.
The real issue with this part is that the Ancient Doll has a drop rate of between 0.8% to 3% from the various methods it can be acquired. One recommendation is to hunt for the item through Artifact Spots on lucky days to increase your chances of finding it.
After getting the Ancient Doll, you need to go to the mines and take the elevator down to the 100th level. Here, you will find a pool of lava where you can throw the Ancient Doll in to make a massive serpent appear, fly away, and leave the Far Away Stone behind, IGN said.
The next step requires players to have formed a good relationship with the Wizard character in Stardew Valley. You need to go to the NPC's house and go to the basement to find the tree-like pedestal on the right side.
You need to place the Far Away Stone on the pedestal to make a short cutscene play out where a cat will give you the Meowmere Sword. After this, the Wizard comes down to scold you about what you've been doing in his basement.
Meowmere Sword's Stats
The Meowmere Sword has an amazingly adorable look and its damage range is 20 to 20, which makes it a consistent weapon. What really shines with this weapon is that it provides Speed+4 and Weight +2 which makes adventuring much easier, according to Screen Rant.
