Flamelash

The Flamelash is a Magic Weapon that launches a mouse-controllable ball of fire, similar to the Magic Missile, which also emits light and produces sparks that fall through blocks. When the attack button is released, the ball keeps its course until it hits something. The ball can be controlled for up to one minute before dissipating. The Flamelash is obtained from Shadow Chests in The Underworld.

Tips

 * The light particles that the projectile emits can fall deep into the ground, illuminating the area below even if it is not hollow. This is useful for finding undiscovered caverns or ores.
 * Because of its controllable nature, this weapon can be effectively used to safely clear out overgrown caves.
 * It is also extremely useful in the underground jungle, since it produces light, can clear Thorny Bushes without fading away and can easily dispatch Hornets.
 * Because you can control it at will, the constant particle effects from fireball can be used to find hidden ores underneath you while underground.
 * It has the damage to be an effective magic weapon well into Hardmode.
