The Spear Trap is a trap found naturally in the Jungle Temple. When activated, it launches a spear in a straight line that can pierce an infinite number of enemies and retracts upon hitting a block or reaching its maximum range of 19.5 blocks. It has a cooldown of 1.5 seconds / 2 seconds between firings and deals 60 damage to enemies and 120 damage to players.
Spear Traps can be rotated 90° with a hammer.
Notes[]
- If two spears hit the same player or creature at the same time, the victim only takes damage once, due to the immunity time of the first spear.
In singleplayer, Spear Traps inflict the Frostburn debuff if the player wears Frost armor.
Tips[]
Rarely, Spear Traps will spawn outside the temple, but cannot be harvested until the player acquires a Picksaw.- They are good for battle arenas.
- When actuated, these can be used as a very efficient way to kill off bosses, or clear waves in events like Pumpkin Moon and Frost Moon, easily.
