Not to be confused with Urchin Flail, a flail sold by the Sea King.

The Urchin Mace is a craftable Pre-Hardmode flail. When used, the player starts spinning the mace around, creating a whirlpool around themselves. If the player stops using the weapon after 1.83 or more seconds of spinning, they launch the whirlpool towards their mouse cursor, which pierces infinitely, deals double damage, and travels a short distance before popping, emitting glowing water dust in a large radius. The projectile can also travel through walls.

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