Pygmy Staff



The Pygmy Staff is a Hardmode summon weapon. It spawns a pygmy character that follows the player and attacks enemies via a ranged spear attack. Like other minions, the summoned pygmy is invincible and follows the player for an unlimited amount of time, unless the player dies, summons a replacement minion, or cancels the buff. The Pygmy Staff is dropped by Plantera with a 25% (1/4) /  chance.

Trivia

 * Each time the Pygmy is summoned, it randomly has one of four possible sprite graphics. However, they are all functionally identical.
 * The pygmy catches up to fast-moving players by flying while standing, sitting, or hanging on its spear.
 * Each of the Pygmy’s colors (purple, blue, red, yellow/orange) seem to represent the colors of the 4 : Donnatello (purple), Leonardo (blue), Michaelangelo (orange), and Raphael (red).
