Not to be confused with the Sanguine Staff, a Hardmode summon weapon.

The Sanguine Flare is a craftable post-Moon Lord wand. When used, it fires a random spread of 8 red orbs, which will begin waving erratically after traveling for 3 seconds and explode upon hitting an enemy or traveling a far distance. The orbs can pass through tiles and upon hitting enemies, they heal the player for 2.5% of the damage dealt.

Its best modifier is Mythical.
