- Not to be confused with Aqua Scepter, a vanilla magic weapon.
The Aqua's Scepter is a craftable post-Moon Lord sentry. It summons a stationary storm cloud which passively rain down 20 raindrops per second. Raindrops cannot travel through solid tiles and can pierce one enemy, dealing 40% less damage on the second enemy hit. If an enemy is nearby, it flashes and spawns a short-lasting electric aura on top of itself every second which deals 720% damage. Each additional hit with the aura decreases its total damage by 40%.
Its best modifier is Ruthless. The Mythical modifier provides the widest array of stat bonuses, but these primarily affect the initial summon rather than the resulting minion. Additionally, minions cannot deal critical hits. The only lasting advantage a Mythical Aqua's Scepter has over a Ruthless one is knockback.
