Ice Sickle



The Ice Sickle is a hardmode melee weapon that fires a projectile with no ammo or mana cost. Its wide projectile halts in midair a short distance from the player, hovering briefly to inflict multiple hits on multiple enemies before dissipating (in a manner similar to the Vilethorn). It is dropped rarely by Armored Vikings (1/200 chance) in the Underground Snow Biome.

Tips

 * Very effective for close-range area control, as most enemies will be knocked back and take high damage by trying to pass through the hovering projectile. It's also potent against slow bosses like the Wall of Flesh or The Destroyer that take multiple hits from each projectile.

Trivia

 * The name "Ice Sickle" is a play on the word "icicle".
 * Similar to the Death Sickle.
 * In spite of this weapon being made out of ice, it will still get benefits from equipping a Fire Gauntlet or using a Flask of Cursed Flames.
