The Cosmic Discharge's spear striking four target dummies through a wall.
The Cosmic Discharge is a post-Moon Lord flail that is dropped by The Devourer of Gods.
It functions like the Solar Eruption, firing a long spear-like projection from the player's position that quickly retracts. It is capable of striking through walls and generates an explosion on enemy hits for additional damage, as well as granting the player the Cosmic Freeze buff. This buff increases life regeneration while standing still and freezes enemies in a small radius around the player.
Its best modifier is Godly. It cannot get modifiers that affect size. Ruthless might be preferred if the player already has 100% critical strike chance.

Notes
- The boosted life regeneration from the Cosmic Freeze buff is overridden by the effects of the Shiny Stone and the Demonshade Breastplate. However, it overrides the effects of Draedon's Heart and Photosynthesis.
Tips
- This weapon is highly effective for farming the Pumpkin Moon and Frost Moon events after the Devourer of Gods has been killed.
- The weapon is effective for crowd control in general due to the powerful explosions it creates on enemy hits, its ability to pierce many enemies, and its ability to grant the player Cosmic Freeze.
