Prism Shard
The Prismalline is a craftable Hardmode dagger that is a direct upgrade to the Crystalline. When used, it throws a prism dagger that is affected by gravity and pierces infinitely. Shortly after it is thrown, it splits into 3 copies of itself in a random spread. Split daggers can either be homing or non-homing, but neither type can pierce. Homing split daggers will not deal damage until they start homing. If the main dagger hits a tile before splitting, the extra daggers will not appear.
Performing a stealth strike with the Prismalline causes the next dagger thrown to split into 6 copies instead of 3 and spawn 4 prism shards. The main dagger shatters into 5 prism shards and all dagger copies shatter into 1-2 prism shards. Prism shards are affected by gravity, do not pierce, and home in on nearby enemies. Prism shards will not deal damage until they start homing. Shards from the main dagger deal 50% of the weapon's damage while shards from the dagger copies deal 33.33% damage. The main dagger and prism shards inflict the Eutrophication debuff.
Its best modifier is Flawless.
