Notes:

The Crystal Sword is a utility weapon that trades much of its damage for a one tile increase in range, making it the sword with the overall longest range (Pixie-Enchanted Sword has a longer range, but the spread of the shots makes its effective range shorter). Despite doing much less damage than some alternative swords, this sword’s longer reach allows players to more easily hit enemies that are extremely dangerous to get close to, such as Oryx the Mad God 2.

This weapon sees its most effective use on Warrior. Since Warrior already has absurdly high attack and the Berserk ability from his helm, these two factors will usually make up for the damage reduction of the Crystal Sword while allowing Warrior to attack foes from a safer distance.

History:

This item was originally called the Mithril Sword. It was possibly introduced in Build 54 of the Wild Shadow Era. It was mistakenly given a range of 6.4. In Build 111 of the Wild Shadow Era, it no longer dropped from enemies. In Build 117, the Mithril Sword was removed from the game and replaced with the Crystal Sword.
When it was first released, it used to look like this until a later build, in which the graphic got redesigned:

During one of the April Fool’s events, the texture of the Crystal Sword (and its shots) was changed to the texture of Mithril Sword:
