Shadowbolt Staff
The Shadowbolt Staff is a craftable post-Moon Lord wand that is a direct upgrade to the Shadowbeam Staff. It shoots a beam of purple light, which bounces 8 times before disappearing. With every bounce, the damage is increased by 15%. With every enemy pierced, the damage is increased by 10%.
Its best modifier is Mythical.

Tips
- Unlike the Shadowbeam Staff, the Shadowbolt Staff can hit the same target multiple times if its hitbox is large enough.
Trivia
- The Shadowbolt Staff is similar to the Phantasmal Fury and Venusian Trident in that they are all crafted using a drop from one of the Rune of Kos bosses and Ruinous Souls, and directly upgrade post-Plantera magic weapons.
