Seedler



The Seedler is a Hardmode sword that has a 14.29% / (1/7 / ) chance to be dropped by Plantera. It fires out grenade-like projectiles, which explode after a period of time (0.5-1 second) or when hitting an enemy, sending out 4 to 7, smaller and faster shards. But, because the size and knockback modifiers don't matter in most situations, the Ruthless modifier is largely considered best.

Tips

 * Despite having pretty low damage for a Hardmode weapon (especially at the stage of the game it is obtained), Seedler, due to its unique abilities, can sometimes surpass more powerful weapons, such as Terra Blade. Underestimating this sword is often a bad decision - with the proper modifier, it can deal with most Hardmode enemies with ease.
 * Attacking large segmented enemies such as The Destroyer can do immense amounts of damage due to the exploding projectiles.
 * It is also extremely effective for clearing out caves while taking next to no damage, as the seeds can be lobbed into a room, quickly clearing out enemies.
 * The seeds also prove very useful while fighting large numbers of enemies (perhaps during Events like Solar Eclipse)
 * Try to launch the initial projectile so that it explodes at a distance from any surface, otherwise the shards will hit the blocks, significantly reducing the weapons' damage potential.

Trivia

 * Prior to 1.3.0.5, the Seedler could be obtained by fishing in the Jungle. This was removed because of the extreme advantage players would gain.
 * The Seedler's projectile bears a close resemblance to that of a coffee bean.
