Rainbow Rod



The Rainbow Rod is a Hardmode magic weapon that launches a controllable projectile, just like the Flamelash or Magic Missile, and can be considered an upgraded version of them.

The projectile it fires is a white-sparkling missile with a rainbow trail, and emits a good deal of light that rotates through the entire color spectrum. It can be controlled by holding the button and moving the cursor. If the button is released mid-drag, the missile will be flung in that direction. If the cursor is stationary on release, it continues along the angle formed from the player.

If any enemies are nearby, the missile will auto-target them. The missile will not disappear when touching a block if it is being manually controlled. It can move through liquids (unlike the Flamelash), and can pierce twice before exploding and dealing damage in a small area.

Tips

 * The Rainbow Rod can also be used to light areas remotely.
 * The Rainbow Rod can be used in conjunction with Binoculars to increase the range of the projectile.
 * Hovering over any slots in the inventory (should it be open) will cause the loss of control of any controlled projectile, flinging it forwards in the direction the cursor was last moving.
 * Opening the inventory (and then closing it in singleplayer) will make it fling in the direction the player's finger was moving.
 * Unlike the Magic Missile and Flamelash, the projectile will not dissipate if it hits a surface while being controlled. Only when it is out of the player's control will it explode upon hitting a surface. This means the player does not need to be as precise when directing the projectile through caves or tight enclosures in worry of accidentally destroying the projectile.
 * While being controlled, the projectile can penetrate one block downwards when there is a shallow layer of liquid covering it
