Meowmere

The Meowmere is a Hardmode melee weapon. It auto-swings, firing a cat-shaped projectile trailed by a rainbow that consumes no mana or ammunition. The projectile is affected by gravity, and will bounce four times, piercing multiple enemies, before disappearing on the fifth hit. As of update 1.3.0.1, it has the highest base damage for a melee weapon in the game, followed by the Terrarian. Prior to the update, this title went to the Terra Blade. The Meowmere has a 11.11% chance to be dropped by the Moon Lord boss. Its best modifier is Legendary. It has a greatly increased range when moving backwards and swinging.

Trivia

 * The cat-shaped rainbow projectiles that the sword fires are inspired by the Nyan Cat meme.
 * This weapon has the highest base damage of any weapon in the game.

Tricks

 * When the projectiles collide with a block, it creates an explosion, and these explosions grow with more collisions. This can be used to defeat enemies behind a wall or under a floor.
