The Razorpine is a relatively rare magic weapon in Terraria, obtainable as a drop from the Everscream during the Frost Moon event, with its exact rarity varying significantly depending on the current wave and game mode.
Obtaining the Razorpine
The Razorpine is exclusively dropped by the Everscream boss, which appears during the Frost Moon event. The Frost Moon is a challenging post-Plantera event that operates in waves, intensifying as you progress. As players advance through these waves, not only does the difficulty increase, but the chances for certain valuable items, including the Razorpine, to drop also improve.
Razorpine Drop Rates
The probability of the Everscream dropping a Razorpine is not static; it changes based on the current wave of the Frost Moon event and can be influenced by game difficulty (such as Expert or Master Mode) or player luck. Generally, the drop chance is at its lowest in the initial waves and steadily increases as you reach the later, more challenging waves of the event.
Here's a detailed breakdown of the drop chances:
| Scenario | Minimum Drop Chance | Maximum Drop Chance |
|---|---|---|
| Standard Difficulty (e.g., Classic Mode, no specific luck bonuses) | 3.46% | 10.37% |
| Increased Chance (e.g., Expert/Master Mode, or with high Luck) | 6.22% | 31.11% |
- Standard Difficulty: The 3.46% drop rate is typically encountered in the earlier waves of the Frost Moon event in standard gameplay. This percentage gradually increases, reaching up to 10.37% in the final, most intense waves.
- Increased Chance: The higher range of 6.22% to 31.11% reflects enhanced drop rates. These improved odds are common in Expert or Master Mode, where bosses often have a higher chance to drop items, or when a player benefits from significant luck bonuses. The 31.11% represents the highest possible drop rate for the Razorpine, occurring under optimal conditions during the latest waves of the Frost Moon.
Given the nature of the Frost Moon event as a challenging end-game activity and the varying drop rates, acquiring the Razorpine can require multiple attempts and strategic farming of the Everscream, especially during the later waves for better odds. This makes the Razorpine a moderately to very rare item, contingent on a player's progression and luck within the event.
