Frost Staff



The Frost Staff is a Hardmode magic weapon that has a drop chance from Icy Mermen and Ice Elementals, both of which are found in the Snow biome or Ice biome. The Frost Staff shoots a frost bolt which travels in a straight line, pierces a single enemy, and disappears after striking a second.

Tips

 * If obtained early in Hardmode, it can be fairly effective until better weapons are obtained. With its fast speed, average and fair knockback, it can deal with crowds of enemies.

Trivia

 * The Frost Staff functions somewhat similarly to a gem staff.
 * It is shaped very similarly to the Imp Staff.
 * In 1.4's official changelog, this weapon is incorrectly referred to as "Staff of Frost"

History

 * Unknown: The projectile shot by the Frost Staff is no longer stacked; if an enemy had more health than a single projectile could hit, the other projectile would also hit the enemy, meaning that piercing would only apply if the enemy could be killed with a single projectile.
