How can I improve the chance of Solar Eclipse happening in Terraria

Is any way to improve the chances of a solar eclipse happening (apart from killing the mechanical bosses). Basically I want to get broken hero swords to be able to forge the terra blade...

Solution 1:

Download TEdit click Open then select your world then click is solar eclipse and press save wait for it to load and done.

Solution 2:

No, there is no way to improve the chance to get a solar eclipse. The 1 in 25 chance is fixed and can't be changed. You just need to be lucky.

Solution 3:

Based on this answer, you can summon a solar eclipse with the Solar tablet at any point in daytime since v1.3 (on PC version).

A solar tablet can be crafted from 8 solar fragments on a hardmode anvil.

Solar fragments can be looted from the lizahrd temple mobs & chests, and you can even find a full tablet in a chest.

Solution 4:

There is no way to actually speed up solar eclipse as well as blood moon in the game
