Eater's Bite

Eater's Bite is a melee weapon added in Update 1.2. This javelin can be found in the Corruption Dungeon Chest on worlds with corruption. The weapon fires a strong projectile that upon impact spawns two to four Mini-Eaters. These mini-eaters fly out from the impact and will lock on to a near by enemy target. When they hit, they do more damage and disappear, making this weapon very effective.
