Flinx Staff

The Flinx Staff is a pre-Hardmode summon weapon. The staff summons a minion that follows the player when there are no enemies around. If the player gets too far away, goes behind a wall, or flies up in the air, the Flinx will twirl end over end towards the player. Upon hitting an enemy, it bounces off, creating a small puff of blue smoke, and then immediately tries to hit the enemy again. Sometimes it will not bounce far enough away from the enemy, and will do damage two times within just a few frames. Visually, the minion looks similar to a Snow Flinx, but slightly purple-colored, and with a bun of fur behind its head, where a ponytail might be on a human.

Unlike other summon weapons, its best possible modifier is Mythical because both the Ruthless and Mythical modifiers only raise its base damage to 9 due to rounding.
