Meteor Staff

The Meteor Staff is a Hardmode magic weapon which summons a falling meteorite projectile from the sky. The meteorite falls in the direction of the mouse cursor, damaging nearby enemies upon colliding with a block. They cannot pass through solid objects, but may pass through platforms. It also emits light particles which continue traveling after the impact.



Tips

 * This weapon can easily kill all three Mechanical Bosses (preferably paired with the Golden Shower) because of its high fire rate (though there are safer tactics for The Destroyer).
 * This weapon also helps against the Flying Dutchman, as the boss cannot pass through walls, as well as the Martian Saucer which cannot pass or attack through low ceilings (though it can attack through blocks on the PC version as of 1.4).
 * This weapon is extremely useful in early hardmode, as it can hit through walls and is easy to make.
 * The Meteor Staff can be very useful when lighting up the Minimap as the projectiles emit high quantities of light.
