Shimmer

Obtained by shimmering: Zenith.All transmutations

the zenith in a bad hat

Mechanically nothing changed. Same swing, same swirl of blades, same behavior as the Zenith in every fight. What changed is the art: every blade in the animation is now the Copper Shortsword you picked up in the first minute of the world. It is a flex, and a very good one.

shimmer runs both ways

The same pool that made it will take it apart, but it does not hand back the zenith. It hands back the full set of component swords, Terra Blade and Meowmere included. That is the escape hatch if you want those blades in your hands again as separate weapons, and it means the joke is never permanent.

reforging is nearly a formality

The swing ignores speed and size rolls, so the top few modifiers land in the same place and the answer only shifts if your critical strike chance is already absurd. Do not sink a fortune into rerolls.
