Starlight

The starlight summons a beam of light in front of the player

The Starlight is a Hardmode Sword that has a 1/4 (25%) chance to be dropped by the Empress of Light boss. When holding down the attack button, the sword will create countless beams of light which appear in front of the weapon. Not all of the beams created will do damage to the enemy. As long as the button to attack is held, the sword will continue to do damage. When attacking, the player is free to aim the sword in any direction similar to that of a Shortsword.

Its best modifier is Legendary.

Tips

 * The quick attack speed and infinite piercing of the weapon allows it to quickly mow down hordes of enemies on the ground.

Trivia

 * Its sprite and attack animation resemble a rapier.
