Amazon



The Amazon is a yoyo that is made from materials found in the Jungle biome. Its high base damage and fairly long flight time make it a great choice for players who choose to use yoyos or melee weapons. The Amazon can stay extended for about 8 seconds. If players are willing to take a risk, the Amazon can be acquired within the first few days of starting a new world, since all of its crafting materials can be found in the Underground Jungle.

It has a spin duration of 8-9 seconds, and can reach up to 13 tiles.

Tips

 * In order to gather Stingers, Spiked Jungle Slimes can be trapped behind walls and killed safely. When going for such a strategy, the player is advised to be on the lookout for Man Eaters and Hornets, as they are able to quickly kill a new character.
 * Jungle Spores are usually found in small caves surrounded by mud blocks. Man Eaters can move through blocks and cause considerably high damage; to avoid this problem, new players should stay in open spaces that allow some movement to dodge the attacks.
 * It is suggested that you collect this weapon as soon as you can as (much like the water bolt) is it very easy to obtain and very overpowered for early game as it can destroy many pre-hardmode bosses such as the eye of Cthulhu and the brain of Cthulhu, it can also be used as a secondry weapon when fighting skeletron
 * If a player is on an Expert mode world, Stingers are a guaranteed drop from the monsters which drop it. With good preparation, one can obtain the Amazon more quickly than on normal mode.
 * Its high sale price makes it a decent source of money when you have spare materials from the Jungle; the materials would otherwise bring in only a few silver.
 * With decent armor and accessories, this can easily destroy early game bosses.
