Flamelash

Flamelash is one of several Magic Weapons found throughout Terraria, obtained as a rare drop from Bone Serpents. When cast, it launches a mouse-controllable ball of fire, which also emits a small light radius, and gives off embers which fall through the ground. As it costs only marginally more Mana to cast, but inflicts more damage, it is considered a higher-tier version of Magic Missile. It hits twice per attack.

Tips and Strategy

 * The light particles that the projectile emits can fall deep into the ground, illuminating the area below even if it is not hollow. This is useful for finding undiscovered caverns or ores.
 * Because of its controllable nature, this weapon can be effectively used to safely clear out overgrown caves.
 * Another use for this very versatile weapon is using it to "snipe" the head part of worm enemies. To do this, simply use the weapon and hover the fireball over the area of the ground you expect the worm to come out of, and if your aim is right, you can guarantee damage or a kill to it.
