Blessed Apple

The Blessed Apple is a Hardmode mount summoning item. When used, it summons a rideable Unicorn Mount that gives the player an extra jump as well as the ability to sprint and charge through enemies, damaging them in the process. It can be dropped by all Hallow-related enemies, with a 0.5% / (1/200 / ) chance to drop.

Once a high speed is reached, the Unicorn emits a sparkle effect, and from that point on, the Unicorn will be able to damage enemies on contact. The invulnerability is granted for 1/10 second when the player and the Unicorn dash through an enemy, much like the brief invulnerability after taking damage. Dashing through enemies while riding this mount will deal 80 base damage to them, excluding defense. This damage benefits from effects that boost summon damage.



Tips

 * The Unicorn mount is arguably one of the best pre-Plantera mounts for its damage protection and ability to attack when moving at high speed.
 * Both the Unicorn and Basilisk Mount's charge abilities operate the same way Sprinting accessories do in terms of momentum. This means that mounting while sprinting, dashing with the or Tabi, or moving quickly through the use of a canceled grapple will immediately cause the Unicorn to begin charging, even if the distance covered would normally not be enough to trigger it.
 * Using this mount against the can make the event trivial without too much major mechanical boss and post-mechanical-boss progress.

Trivia

 * Using any auto-firing weapon such as the Terra Blade,, or a Minishark, and firing it in the opposite direction the player is walking in will cause the Unicorn to walk "backwards".
 * The Unicorn on flat ground travels at the same speed as an unmodified Terra Blade beam.
 * The color of the Unicorn Mount differs from that of the Unicorn. In contrast to this, the achievement Rainbows and Unicorns seems to use the coloration of the enemy.
 * The saddle on the mount sprite is the same coloration as the summoning item itself.
