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.
