The Automated Hacksaw is a post-Moon Lord melee weapon found in the High Security Laboratory Crates in the Abandoned Lab. It has three attack modes, and pressing ⚷ Open / Activate will switch the current mode.

Attack Mode 1 - Spins the Automated Hacksaw around the player at extremely high speeds.

Attack Mode 2 - Points the Hacksaw in the cursor's direction, dealing constant damage. After 1.5 seconds of continuous use, the Hacksaw will overheat, launching a Heat Wave forward that inflcits the Hellfire debuff, can pierce infinitely, and ignores tiles.

Attack Mode 3 - Points the Hacksaw in the cursor's direction, dealing constant damage. The damage of the Hacksaw will increase by 4% with each hit, up to a maximum boost of +400%. The boos will begin to decay by 2% per frame if no damage has been dealt in the last 0.33 seconds. Additionally, this mode can be used as a normal chainsaw to cut trees.

Its best modifier is Godly.
