Buddy Sword
Buddy Sword is a Legendary sword best known for its extreme range and fast high damage attacks. It excels at controlling space, allowing players to pressure opponents from distances where many other swords struggle to reach.
In combat, Buddy Sword is especially effective for players who prefer precision based PvP. Its long reach makes it strong for catching enemies, punishing movement, and maintaining pressure without needing to stay too close. The sword can deal high damage quickly, making successful hits very rewarding.
Its main limitation is that it is aim dependent. To use Buddy Sword effectively, players need good accuracy and timing, since missing attacks can waste its biggest advantage: range control. Because of this, the sword performs best in the hands of players with strong prediction and consistent aim.
Obtainment:
Obtain as a 5–10% drop chance from defeating Cake Queen at Ice Cream Land (Sea of Treats, Third Sea).
Buddy Sword
Strengths & Weaknesses
A quick breakdown of where this build shines and struggles.
Strengths
Very fast M1 click speed, making basic sword attacks smooth and strong for pressure.
Extremely fast skills, so both moves are difficult for enemies to react to or dodge.
Great for AFK/Buddha grinding since there’s no M1 dash, keeping enemies in front of you.
Excellent combo potential thanks to quick startup and stun pressure.
High overall damage, especially if attacks land consistently.
[Z] Heat Slash has good damage, decent range, and provides a short stun for combo setups.
[X] Lightning Wave offers very long range and can passively heal, giving strong sustain.
Lightning Wave knockback is useful for zoning, escaping, or punishing distant targets.
Damage scaling on X rewards long-range snipes with even higher damage.
Weaknesses
High skill requirement - needs strong prediction and aim to use effectively.
Useless against Blade users since sword damage won’t affect them.
No mobility skill, so chasing or escaping relies entirely on movement.
Poor for active grinding with skills because both moves cause heavy knockback.
Knockback hurts combo consistency, especially if timing isn’t perfect.
[Z] Heat Slash is single-target, can’t hit Sea Beasts, and is harder to land at range.
[X] Lightning Wave has a small hitbox, demanding precise aim.
X has input delay, so switching weapons too fast can waste the move while still triggering cooldown.
Verdict
Buddy Sword is a high-skill, high-reward sword with fast attacks, strong damage, and deadly combo potential. Excellent in PvP for players with good aim and prediction, but hard to master and less practical for grinding due to heavy knockback.
