The Insidious Impaler is a post-Moon Lord melee weapon that is dropped by The Old Duke. When used, it throws out a harpoon that sticks to enemies and tiles and can travel in the air for 0.5 seconds before falling to the ground. Upon contact with enemies, it damages them up to 8 times before exploding, releasing green or purple particles. The harpoons inflict the Acid Venom and Sulphuric Poisoning debuffs.
Its best modifier is Godly. It cannot get modifiers that affect size. Ruthless might be preferred if the player already has 100% critical strike chance.
