The Corvid Harbinger Staff is a craftable post-Moon Lord summon weapon that is a direct upgrade to the Raven Staff. When used, it summons a dark raven minion that flies around and rapidly charges towards enemies, occasionally teleporting near them and leaving a ring of dust before continuing its charge.
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 Corvid Harbinger Staff has over a Ruthless one is knockback.

Trivia
- The word corvid is derived from Corvidae, the scientific family containing birds such as crows and ravens.
- The item's tooltip is a direct reference to "The Raven", a poem by Edgar Allan Poe.
- This weapon can be seen as a counterpart of the Endo Hydra Staff, as the two summon weapon's recipes contain post-Plantera items and have similar crafting materials.
