Not to be confused with Shaderain Staff, a wand that summons a sentry-like cloud.

The Shadowdrop Staff was a craftable Pre-Hardmode wand that could also drop from The Hive Mind. When used, it caused groups of thin, grey projectiles to fall from the sky, dealing damage to any enemy they touched. The fired projectiles could not pass through blocks and could not pierce enemies. It was the Corruption counterpart to the Blood Bath.

Its best modifier was Mythical.
