The Dao of Pow is a flail weapon that can only be crafted. It is the strongest flail weapon in the game. It has a range of 22 blocks, 6 further than the Sunfury at 16.

The Dao of Pow has a glitch when swung, it will fall through the block it is on and won't be able to get out unless the player pulls it back. This seems to happen mostly when in water. All bosses are immune to Confused. The Yin & Yang will also spin when the flail is used. Also if your character stands about 15 blocks away from a door (or right next to it), it can go through it. It is one of the most effective weapons to use against The Destroyer.

TriviaEdit

• The name of the item is a reference to The Tao of Pooh, a best-selling book written by Benjamin Hoff. The book is intended as an introduction to the Eastern belief system of Taoism for Westerners.
• The symbol on the ball is the Yin and Yang symbol, representative of Tao, from Taoism belief, or alternately spelled, Dao and Daoism. Thus the name, Dao of Pow. The description "Find your inner pieces" is a modification of the Daoistic search for inner peace, or peace within one's self, through balance of Yin and Yang (tying to the symbol). Peace, modified to pieces, meaning that you'll be in pieces when hit.
• If the left mouse button is held, it becomes unaffected by gravity, allowing you to hit the same enemy twice if they remain in its path.

BugsEdit

Sometimes the flail can go through single blocks.
