The Hyphae Rod is a Pre-Hardmode wand that is dropped by Crabulon. When used, it spawns 3 hovering mushroom spores near the player that explode on enemy contact and are able to move through tiles. These spores last for 3 seconds before dissipating.

Its best modifier is Mythical.

Tips

  • This weapon is extremely useful for bosses that move directly into the spores, such as The Hive Mind and The Perforators.
    • Additionally, the spores can be stacked before a boss fight to deal large amounts of damage.

Trivia

  • Hyphae are long, branching filamentous structures of fungi.
  • The mushroom spores spawned by the wand are the same as the ones spawned by the Truffle, while defending himself against enemies.
