Optic Staff



The Optic Staff is a Hardmode summon weapon that summons a miniature version of The Twins in their second form, which follow the player and attack enemies. The summoned pair of characters (named Spazmamini and Retinamini) attack via a melee and ranged laser attack respectively, similar to the behavior of the The Twins boss. Like other minions, the summoned Twins are invincible and follow the player for an unlimited amount of time, unless the player dies, summons a replacement minion, or cancels the buff.

Its best Modifier is Ruthless. The Mythical modifier provides the widest array of stats bonuses, but these primarily affect the initial summon rather than the resulting minion. Additionally, Minions cannot deal critical hits. The only significant advantage a Mythical Optic Staff has over a Ruthless one is knockback.

Tips

 * The Optic Staff is effective against bosses, as each eye attacks individually, and is especially effective against The Destroyer, as the mini Spazmatisms will pierce each segment.
 * They do not do well against a separated mob crowd, and are better for thick mob crowds such as those in the Pumpkin Moon and Frost Moon, as well as in the Dungeon.
 * Unlike most flying minions, the Twins will not naturally pass through blocks unless you have moved out of range. This makes them incredibly prone to getting stuck in tight areas and caves.
