A Crystal Serpent used against Target Dummies.

The Crystal Serpent is a Hardmode magic weapon that has a chance to be obtained by fishing in the Hallow at the Surface or Underground Layers. It fires a magical pink projectile that shatters into three to five smaller sparks on impact with an enemy or solid block, each of which deals anywhere from half to equal damage to the initial blast. These sparks are affected by gravity and ricochet against solid blocks, lasting one second before disappearing. When fired at a one block thick wall one of the splash projectiles has a chance of passing though to the other side.

Its best Modifier is Mythical.

Notes

• As the Crystal Serpent is acquired by fishing and has no other prerequisites to appear, it can be obtained at the beginning of Hardmode with little effort.

History
