Blizzard Staff in action.

The Blizzard Staff is an auto-firing magic weapon that summons a storm of non-piercing icicles from above that travel in the general direction of the cursor. Four projectiles are fired per "swing" (10 frames). The Blizzard Staff is dropped by the Ice Queen during the Frost Moon Event.

Its best Modifier is Mythical.

Notes

• Projectiles spawned within blocks travel through them to an extent, similar to the Star Veil or Starfury, but not as reliably. The Blizzard Staff's projectiles are more likely to be obstructed by ceilings before they reach the player's depth. It is therefore much more effective in open areas of the surface, or in underground areas with very high ceilings.
• Velocity is slowed in water.
• In console its slightly less effective as it only reaches as far as the players normal reach

Tips

• This weapon currently has the second-highest DPS (damage per second) of any magic weapon, falling just behind the Bubble Gun.
