The Scourge of the Seas is a Hardmode javelin dropped by the Aquatic Scourge that is an indirect upgrade to the Scourge of the Desert. When used it automatically throws a javelin that gains velocity while in flight. Thrown javelins are slightly affected by gravity and when contact is made with an enemy, they will explode into toxic clouds. The javelin and clouds inflict the Acid Venom debuff.

Performing a stealth strike with the weapon will cause the next javelin and its spawned clouds to inflict the Sulphuric Poisoning debuff.

Its best modifier is Flawless.

Trivia

• The Scourge of the Seas was implemented based on a community suggestion made by spideradult on the mod's Discord server.
• The Scourge of the Seas could be considered an alternate version of the Wave Skipper.
