Use

Completed Shape

The Art Attack is a craftable Hardmode wand. Upon use, it fires a star with a rainbow trail that follows the mouse cursor. It initially deals no damage until a full shape with the trail is completed. All enemies within the completed shape emit rainbow dust and get damaged for 1x if the shape is completed instantly, and up to 18x if the shape takes 3 seconds or longer to draw.

Its best modifier is Mythical.

Trivia
