The Tracking Disk is a craftable Pre-Hardmode rogue boomerang. When thrown, the disk detects its nearest enemy and fires lasers towards it continuously. Lasers deal 25% of the disk's damage and have a small area of effect.
Performing a stealth strike with the Tracking Disk causes the resulting disk to be able to track and target four enemies at once. Lasers fired from stealth strikes are also 60% larger but deal 15% of the weapon's damage.
The weapon consumes 0.08 units of charge per use and has a maximum charge of 50. As such, the weapon can be used continuously from full charge 625 times, or for 7 minutes and 7 seconds.
Its best modifier is Flawless.
