Rainbow Crystal Staff

The Rainbow Crystal Staff is a Hardmode, post-Plantera sentry-style minion-summoning weapon (similar to the Frost Hydra), lasting two minutes, remaining stationary, and not counting against the player's minion capacity. The Rainbow Crystal Staff has a 1/9 chance (11.11%) to be dropped by the Moon Lord.

The Rainbow Crystal Staff summons a temporary floating crystal, dealing high-damage to enemies within its 60 tile range. Attacks are animated as a spread of colored light beams targeting the closest enemy. The beams themselves do not do damage; damage is dealt only by delayed explosions at the end of the beams. Its high damage and wide coverage is offset by the delayed explosions. Fast mobs will easily evade the damage. Limiting mob movement is recommended to bring out the weapon's true potential. Unlike other sentry summons, the crystal floats rather than falling to the ground. It is placed at the cursor position on summoning.

Its best modifier is Ruthless or Mystic. The Mythical modifier provides the widest array of stats bonuses, but these primarily affect the initial summon rather than the resulting minion. Minions cannot deal critical hits.
