The Pole Warper is a craftable post-Moon Lord summon weapon. It summons a pair of Warper Magnet minions that orbit around the player. When an enemy is found, the magnets disperse, pause for a brief moment, then charge at the target. Whilst using the item itself, the magnets independently circle around themselves and will not charge if enemies are nearby.

The weapon consumes 1.25 units of charge per use and has a maximum charge of 250. As such, the weapon can be used continuously from full charge 200 times, or for 30 seconds.

Its best modifier is Ruthless. The Mythical modifier provides the widest array of stat bonuses, but these primarily affect the initial summon rather than the resulting minion. Additionally, minions cannot deal critical hits. The only lasting advantage a Mythical Pole Warper has over a Ruthless one is knockback.

Crafting

Recipe

The Pole Warper cannot be crafted until the Encrypted Schematic from the Ice Bio-center Lab is decrypted. If the requirement has not been met, two lines of tooltip are added at the bottom of the item:
You don't have sufficient knowledge to create this yet
The Ice biome schematic must be deciphered first
