Nightglow
Weapon · WeaponMelee3★Nightglow is an early melee weapon: 62nd of 79 by attack, so treat it as a stepping stone, at 80 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 278,400 gold it is worth real money to a merchant.
Nightglow Crafting Recipe

Pal Metal Ingot×120
Ancient Civilization PartsCrafting it takes 370 materials across 3 types, and the bottleneck is almost always the 240× 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 Terraprisma at 90 attack; step down and it is Metal Spear at 80. That gap is the honest measure of whether an upgrade is worth the materials right now.
