Queen Spider Staff



The Queen Spider Staff is a Hardmode sentry summon weapon that summons a Queen Spider sentry that lasts for two minutes. It fires short-range spider eggs at enemies at a rate of 1/s which can roll and are heavily affected by gravity. Upon colliding with enemies or objects, the eggs hatch three baby spiders each that attack enemies suicide-style, inflicting Minion damage along with the Venom debuff.

The Queen Spider can be summoned in any area of the visible screen, even if blocks completely separate the player from the point chosen. It requires blocks or platforms to stand on.

Tips

 * The Staff can be helpful for clearing out caves and rooms without directly entering them, by summoning it through the wall.
 * Because the Spider Fang item is a common drop (75% / chance) from Black Recluse spiders, the Queen Spider Staff is relatively easy to obtain and a useful aid in surviving early Hardmode.
 * The Staff can be sold for whereas the materials needed only sell for   (24 Spider Fangs), which makes selling the staff as opposed to the fangs a good way to make money.
 * It is possible to have up to 4 Spider Queens summoned at once when wearing any of the sets bought from the Tavernkeep and any of the Ogre accessories.

Trivia

 * It is one of only four weapons in the game that can inflict Venom without any buffs or bonuses, the others being the Spider Staff, Pygmy Staff, and the Venom Staff.
