Yoyos

Template:Pc only

Yoyos are flail-like melee weapons. Unlike flails though, yoyos can be held in the air for a limited amount of time and be moved around by the cursor. Some yoyos are acquired as rare drops, others can be crafted and some can be bought by various different merchants. There are 20 different Yoyos.

There are several accessories that affect the function of yoyos. White String can be equipped to increase the range, a Counterweight can be equipped to release a second damaging projectile after hitting an enemy with the yoyo, and the Yoyo Glove allows the use of two yoyos. These three accessories can be crafted into the Yoyo Bag, which combines the effects of all of them.

Yoyo range is determined by melee attack speed. However, yoyos cannot have their speed modified, making their best modifier Godly
