Beam Sword

Weapon · WeaponMelee1

A sword for close quarters. Its high-output laser cuts and burns opponents in the same stroke.

Beam Sword is 13th of 79 melee weapons by attack, at 1,023 against the 2,400 of Laser Sword.

It feeds no other recipe, which makes it a terminal item: craft what you will actually carry and stop there.

At 10 weight each it eats carry capacity fast, so bring a mount or park a chest nearby. At 182,920 gold it is worth real money to a merchant.

Beam Sword Crafting Recipe

Work: 2000000

Crafting it takes 191 materials across 5 types, and the bottleneck is almost always the 125× requirement — line that up first and the rest follows.

Where to Find Beam Sword

The recipe is not on the Technology tree — it is locked behind a schematic you have to find first. The best single source is sea base enemy camp loot in the Sakurajima at 17.7% per container, and the table below lists every tier and where each one drops.

Every Tier of Beam Sword

The same piece exists at 5 rarities, and the gap is not cosmetic: attack runs 930 to 1395, a 1.5x swing. Which one you end up with is decided by the rarity of the schematic you built from, not by the recipe — so a legendary copy of this is worth more than the next item up built from a common one.

Schematics That Unlock Beam Sword

The Technology tree hands you the plain Beam Sword at level 57 for 3 Technology points, but nothing above that base version — the rarer builds are schematic-only. One schematic grants the recipe, and they are world loot — chests, boss Pals and the late-game pools — rather than anything you research. Higher-rarity copies of the same schematic raise the quality of what you end up crafting.

Fastest route. The fastest route is treasure map digs (tier 5), and the reason is the ladder rather than the top rung: that pool stocks every tier, so the common copies it hands you fuse upward into the one you want. Counting them, a top-tier Beam Sword schematic works out at roughly 96 containers against the 168 the 4★ drop rate alone suggests. Spare low tiers are progress, not clutter. Schematics fuse five-to-one, so a lower tier with better odds can beat the top tier outright. Counts are containers of that source, not time.

Alternatives and Upgrades

Step up from here and you get Lily's Spear at 1,075 attack; step down and it is Katana at 1,014. The size of that step is what decides whether the crafting bill is justified yet.
