Use
The Essence Flayer is a craftable post-Moon Lord broadsword. When swung, it creates scythe projectiles at a medium range that travel through walls and deal continuous damage for a few seconds. Its projectiles have a weak homing ability. When enemies are killed by the projectiles, healing essence flames are created which restore 8 health to the player on contact.
Its best modifier is Legendary.
