Terrarian



The Terrarian is a Hardmode, post-Moon Lord yoyo which has a reach of 25 tiles and can stay in the air indefinitely. Similarly to the Flairon, it fires short-lived projectiles at a rapid rate which will home in on nearby enemies and bounce off of walls. The Terrarian has a chance to drop from the Moon Lord. It is currently the most powerful yoyo in the game.

Although Yoyos cannot normally obtain the Legendary modifier, the Terrarian is an exception and gets a unique set of boosts from the Legendary modifier: +17% Damage, +8% Critical Strike Chance, and +17% Knockback.

Tips

 * Single target of the Terrarian is limited by penetrating weapon immunity frames. On every registered hit, immunity frames that lasts for 1/6th of a second will be gained by the target. In other words the Terrarian is only capable of damaging a single target 6 times a second (at most). Thus, using Yoyo Bag or Yoyo Glove does NOT improve the damage output against a single target.

Trivia

 * The Terrarian is available in reality thanks to . In November 2015, the original "Terrarian" came out, and then, in June 2019, a related yoyo called "Legendary Terrarian" was released by One Drop Yoyos. With the 1.4.0.1 update, you can now reforge the Terrarian to have the prefix "Legendary", granting you an in game version of the "Legendary Terrarian".
 * Fittingly with being dropped by the Moon Lord, it appears to be made from Luminite, based on its hue.
 * The Terrarian alongside the new Zenith has the second-highest base damage of any melee weapon in the game, falling behind the Meowmere by 10 base damage. However, despite this, it usually has a higher than the Meowmere because of the homing projectiles and the effect of the Yoyo Bag.
 * The Terrarian has the longest reach, highest knockback, and highest base critical strike chance of any yoyo.
 * It is the only yoyo that shoots projectiles.
 * tModLoader adds an item called the 'April Fools Joke' which appears to be a Terrarian, but actually can be used to inflict a variety of cosmetic debuffs upon the user.
