The Insidious Impaler is a post-Moon Lord spear that is dropped by The Old Duke. It throws a spear that is unaffected by gravity and sticks to blocks and enemies, releasing toxic and sulphuric clouds that inflict the Acid Venom and Sulphuric Poisoning debuffs.

Its best modifier is Godly. It cannot get modifiers that affect size. Ruthless might be preferred if the player already has 100% critical strike chance.

Notes

  • Despite the tooltip mentioning a harpoon, the projectile behaves more like a spear.
