Last Prism

The Last Prism is a Magic weapon that has a 11.11% of dropping from the Moon Lord.

Often considered the most powerful obtainable weapon, it deals a massive amount of damage, but also consumes mana incredibly fast. When used, 6 beams that deal individual damage begin to rotate out of the prism's tip and get closer together, spinning faster as the beam charges, with this process taking approximately 4 seconds, each beam does damage once per second. This means without crits or damage amplification this weapon does 600 damage per hit when fully charged, and the weapon hits 6.66 times per second, making the base DPS 3600 on a single target. The same amount of damage can be dealt when the beam is not fully charged, but the damage will be dispersed over a large area, making it ideal for fighting large bosses. However, due to the high mana cost (12 mana 6 times per second when fully charged is 72 mana per second) players will struggle to maintain the beam for more than 5-6 seconds. A Mana Flower, Nebula armor and a healthy supply of Super Mana Potions are all recommended for continuous use of this weapon. Although Super Mana Potions are the only effective way to continuously shoot the beam, they do substantially reduce your damage with the mana potion debuff. Using the Celestial Cuffs can substantially reduce your mana usage in some situations, allowing for much higher sustained damage. The beam does not pass through blocks but can pass through platforms.

Because the weapon has no knockback, it is unable to acquire the Mythical modifier. Therefore, the best modifier is Demonic or Mystic.



Trivia

 * The Last Prism's charge up and firing animation very closely match the description for Marisa Kirisame's Spellcard "Love Sign; Master Spark", right down to the scintillation of colours.
