The Rusty Beacon Prototype is a craftable Pre-Hardmode sentry that can also be found in Rusty Chests. When used, it summons a stationary Rusty drone that bobs up and down. Every 2 seconds, starting 1 second after it is summoned, it fires a toxic wave pulse that inflicts the Irradiated debuff.
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.
