Fallen Spectral Hammer
Fallen Blast
The Fallen Paladin's Hammer is a craftable Hardmode melee weapon that is an upgrade to the Paladin's Hammer and Pwnagehammer. It throws a fast gravity-affected hammer which passes through tiles. Upon hitting an enemy, it slows down and starts returning to its user, capable of piercing infinitely on its return. Each hit reduces the damage of subsequent hits by 10%. Every three successful strikes launches a spectral hammer upon returning in the direction of the return which homes into an enemy after 0.92 seconds. The spectral hammer deals 200% of the weapon's damage and explodes on hit, dealing an additional 100% of the weapon's damage to all enemies in a massive radius. Hit sounds leading up the third strike gain an increasingly higher pitch.
Its best modifier is Godly. It cannot get modifiers that affect size.
