Magic Mirror





The Magic Mirror is an item often found in dungeons and in random chests around the world, which lets the players teleport themselves back to the spawn point. It is a reference to the Magic Mirror from "The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past" videogame.

It is recommended to be careful when keeping the Magic Mirror in the hot bar, as to prevent unwanted teleportations.

When teleporting, the held mirror gives off light like a torch, though since you'd be leaving the area, this use is limited at best.

When teleporting, you become vulnerable to attack for a second or two before the mirror takes effect. Be wary when using this item at low health, as you could be killed before you manage to teleport.

A similar effect can be gained by quitting to the main menu, and then reloading the game. This returns you to your spawn point, making the item redundant, though this method has the drawback of removing any loot lying about when you exit, in addition to forcing you to wait for the level to be saved and reloaded. This is also more of a problem in multiplayer, where waiting to reconnect takes longer. It is also recommended that the host does not use this tactic, as it will obviously force all other players off the server too (unless you're running the console version of the server). Sells for 1 gold.

Bugs
It is confirmed, that if you use the magic mirror away from your spawn point while fighting the Eye of Cthulhu, the eye will cease fighting you. If you use magic mirror when fighting Skeletron, he dissapears and the old man usually won't re-spawn. Sadly, it is common knowledge that the Eater Of Worlds will follow you to the ends of the earth.

Trivia
The partical affect of the magic mirror is similar to the magic missile impact partical affect.
