Tempest Staff



The Tempest Staff has a 20% chance to be dropped by Duke Fishron. It summons tornadoes that shoots sharks at enemies. It has the highest base damage of the summoning staffs except for the Staff of the Frost Hydra. Even though the sharks deal a lot of damage, they are not very accurate. They sometimes fail at hitting mobile enemies. Despite this flaw, the sharknado itself is non-solid (can pass through all blocks) and attack enemies outside of the player's sight, making it useful for killing monsters beyond. If the monster can pass through the blocks, it may sometimes attempt to home in and shoot sharks when inside the monsters, damaging them.

The Tempest Staff does not require mana for it to work, so the best Modifier for it is Ruthless.
