Bone Javelin



The Bone Javelin is a consumable ranged /  throwing weapon crafted from Sturdy Fossils. Upon hitting an enemy, it will stick to the enemy and inflict the Penetrated debuff, dealing 3 damage per second. Up to six Bone Javelins can be pierced onto an enemy, dealing a total of 18 damage a second. Bone Javelins stuck in an enemy will dissipate after 15 seconds. Bone Javelins have no chance of dropping themselves after impacting blocks or hitting enemies.

Tips

 * The Bone Javelin is a powerful pre-Hardmode weapon with its high base damage of and long sticking effect. Combined with Fossil armor, this weapon could easily two-shot most pre-Hardmode enemies and is still viable in early Hardmode. However, it lacks the piercing ability of the Bone Throwing Knife, making it most effective against single enemies.

Trivia

 * The Penetrated debuff can never be applied to players, so it lacks a correct debuff icon. It instead uses a duplicate of the Distorted debuff's icon.
 * Bone Javelins act similar to a Daybreak which both stick to an enemy and inflict a stacking damage debuff.
