Nightglow
Weapon · WeaponMelee1★Nightglow is an early melee weapon: 68th of 79 by attack, so treat it as a stepping stone, at 60 against the 2,400 of Laser Sword.
Nothing is crafted from it — it is an end product, so anything you make is meant to be used rather than banked as a component.
Details
It does not stack, so every spare copy costs an inventory slot. At 72,600 gold it is worth real money to a merchant.
Nightglow Crafting Recipe
Crafting it takes 95 materials across 3 types, and the bottleneck is almost always the 60× requirement — line that up first and the rest follows.
Where to Find Nightglow
Nightglow is not something you find lying around — you craft it, and the recipe is below.
Schematics That Unlock Nightglow
Nightglow is not learned from the Technology tree — you need a schematic for it. 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.

Alternatives and Upgrades
Step up from here and you get Refined Metal Pickaxe at 60 attack; step down and it is Bat at 50. That gap is the honest measure of whether an upgrade is worth the materials right now.
