The Squirrel Squire Staff is a craftable Pre-Hardmode sentry that is also obtained from the Starter Bag. When used, it summons a stationary squirrel sentry that attacks enemies by throwing acorns at them that pierce once. If the blocks beneath the squirrel are destroyed, the squirrel will slowly hover down by spinning its propeller until it lands on the ground. It can also attack enemies while hovering.

Its best modifier is Mythical. While Ruthless may seem to provide a bigger damage by percentages, rounding reveals that Mythical and Ruthless boost the damage equally for this weapon.
