The Dank Staff is a craftable Pre-Hardmode summon weapon that is also dropped by The Hive Mind. It is the Corruption counterpart of the Flesh of Infidelity. When used, it summons a miniature Dank Creeper that attempts to latch onto enemies to deal damage and inflicts the Brain Rot debuff upon contact.

Its best modifier is Mythical. While Ruthless may seem to provide a bigger damage by percentages, rounding reveals that Mythical and Ruthless boost the damage equally for this weapon.

Tips

  • The Dank Staff is very helpful for multiple enemies stacked in one location, so it can be good for invasion events.
  • Although its base damage is lower than other summons of the same tier, the dank creeper's tendency to hover on top of enemies causes it to deal damage rapidly.
