Butcher's Chainsaw



The Butcher's Chainsaw is a Hardmode, post-Plantera chainsaw that has a 2.5% / (1/40 / ) chance to drop from Butchers during a Solar Eclipse. Upon striking an enemy(critters don't count), it will emit sparks akin to the projectiles produced by the Wand of Sparking, dealing damage to nearby enemies/extra segments as well. These sparks deal magic damage, meaning that any magic buffs, accessories, or armor will boost them. They also have a chance to inflict the On Fire! debuff.

Tips

 * The Butcher's Chainsaw has a high DPS because it has a high damage per hit, and can hit enemies multiple times in rapid succession.

Trivia

 * The Butcher, and the Butcher's Chainsaw, are both a tribute to the 1974 movie.
 * The Butcher's Chainsaw has the highest base damage and knockback of any tool.
 * Enemies immune to the On Fire! debuff do not resist the damage from the sparks.
 * It is the only melee weapon that can deal magic damage, and the only few melee weapons able to inflict a debuff without using Flasks.
 * Like the Bladetongue, it can inflict the debuff only if it hits an enemy, but the debuff does not affect the enemy hit initially.
