Star

Not to be confused with Shimmer, a vanilla liquid.

The Shimmerspark is a craftable Hardmode yoyo. While deployed, it fires slow-moving purple stars towards enemies within 20 tiles. The stars do not pierce or go through tiles, and they inflict the Frostbite debuff on hit.

Its best modifier is Godly. It cannot get modifiers that affect size.
