There is a weapon that little people know about that is a combo of the thorn Chakram and Vampire knives. It’s called the Fruitcake Chakram and has a 0.63% drop chance from presents. It does 14 damage, 8 knock back, and has a 4% crit chance. I think it’s worthy of being a video itself.

Vamp Knives are a safe option with no real drawbacks.

I would still recommend using higher dps weapons for main damage and using vamp for support, of course.

What truly makes any class "invincible" is being able to dodge correctly. Tanking really doesn't work on master+ Defense still gives a player an ability to take one or two hits on FTW-master but you really shouldn't rely on these knifes healing 500 in a moment. They help with chip damage I guess, but so do healing potions and they're much better at that too. They do not work on bosses and the best they can do is nulify dot effects. If we're talking about expert or (god forgive me) normal mode then they're pretty much downgrade of what you can get at the time and yet again, they do no heal enough to be worth it as you can't deal enough damage with knifes. So yeah... they are overrated. They used to be busted back when 1.2 released, sure, but after they got nerfed into the ground they became a fart in a really cool looking chest.

Fun fact also, melee speed increases the velocity of the knives, not the rate of fire. However this doesn’t make melee speed useless, it allows the knives to travel further before their damage drops off. Because life steal is a fraction of dealt damage, you can get more lifesteal at range with a higher melee speed stat. Handy for using the knives at range like they are intended.

I think people always over exaggerate how bad the Vampire Knives nerf was. Before the nerf, it was insane, maybe the best Melee weapon in the game. The Vampire Knives just about invalidated every other weapon available paired with its good damage and very high lifesteal rate. After the nerf, it’s reasonable, but they’re still excellent. You can’t get away with soloing things with Vampire Knives anymore, but it functions as a utility weapon for the rest of the game after Plantera. It’s best used in conjunction with other weapons, and only truly struggles on Moon Lord, where the game literally had to implement a debuff designed to disable it and Spectre armor due to how powerful they’d be otherwise. Scourge of Corruptor will always be the worse of the two Evil key weapons, not because its damage is worse, but simply because Life Steal is so valuable that it makes Vampire Knives viable for the rest of the game after you get them. With decent dodging skills, post-nerf Vampire Knives can still make you nearly invincible, especially since Melee has the best defenses in the game

Are they the most ovverrated weapon in the game? Ehhhh maybe. But something being oberrated doesn't mean it's bad. As shown in this video, they aren't bad at all. But I definitely thiink people choose crimson over corruption simply because of the knives is a bit of a bait. Scourge as multiple comments have pointed out is a really good weapon itself that no one talks about. And unless you jump through some hoops, you're effectively choosing one or the other and not both (Even if you make an artificial crimson, you'd still need to make another world or else the crimson chest won't spawn and vice versa for corruption. At least i'm pretty sure that's how it works. The biome key mechanics changed so much since base 1.2 that I honestly just stopped even keeping track of the changes) So vampire knives are nice, but I haven't felt any need to farm for them in any of my most recent melee playthroughs. Even just the shadowflame knife is enough for the first part of harmode honestly and that's far easier to get

I managed to complete a playthrough with them as my final weapon and I would recommend them all the way up until moon lord. You want to keep your distance during that fight and I actually needed to learn more about his attacks, as to when it's safe to get up close for more damage with them

The weapon's honestly just a lot more fair now. It was completely broken when it was introduced and I totally didn't showcase its pre-nerf absurdity. It's a nice weapon to have in the toolkit if you desperately need healing and the spread of the attack isn't half-bad either I guess.
Do you know what I want back? The OLD Shadow Beam Staff! Infinite piercing WITH NO damage fall off the more enemies you hit! My God do I miss it

Its true in certain conditions Its right that vamp knifes are overrated but they aren't bad at all they are useful in a lot of invasions like when your health gets low during celestial towers and you retreat to heal while spamming V.knives I personally keep it everytime in my inventory till the end it really helps Scourge isn't bad but that's a pure weapon with no other purpose than damage so it gets out shadowed easily So Moral of the story:both are good but Vampire knives are GOAT and it's a fact :D Its best to play drunk world or just use which infection you've got ;) Even if vamp is nerfed it's still useful as hell and note I only play master mode so you can think how useful it would be in expert or classic

One of the important things to note is that the weapon's functionality comes from its synergy with the rest of the character's set up. Because of the life steal, the player can focus more on attributes like damage output and immunity frames, allowing for the life steal to make up any lost defense. Against normal enemies, using banners is a very good way to make the knives viable for events and whatnot. I wouldn't say it's overrated, rather situational given how unique the weapon is

this weapon is incredibly starter friendly, if you're new to the game and want to beat it with ease, vampire knives is an incredible choice.
