Vampire Frog Staff

The Vampire Frog Staff is a summon weapon. It has a 4.17% chance to be dropped by a Zombie Merman and a 2.22% chance to be dropped by a Wandering Eye Fish, both of which spawn while fishing during a Blood Moon. It spawns a vampire frog that follows the player and attacks by jumping towards enemies and sticking their tongue out in a melee attack. Like other minions, summoned vampire frogs are invincible and follow the player for an unlimited amount of time, unless the player dies, summons a replacement minion, or cancels the buff.

Its best modifier is Ruthless. The Mythical modifier provides the widest array of stat bonuses, but these primarily affect the initial summon rather than the resulting minion. Additionally, minions cannot deal critical hits. The only lasting advantage a Mythical Vampire Frog Staff has over a Ruthless one is knockback.
