Summons Minion
Frost Blossom

The Frost Blossom Staff is a craftable Pre-Hardmode summon weapon. When used, it summons a frozen flower minion above the player's head that fires non-piercing frost beams at nearby enemies once every 0.58 seconds. The beam creates a small explosion in the shape of a flower with 3-5 petals, dealing 1/3 of the weapon's damage. Unlike most minions, only one Frost Blossom can be summoned at a time.

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.
