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.
NotesEdit
- 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.
TipsEdit
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.
