The Meteor Staff is a Hardmode magic weapon which summons a falling meteorite projectile from the sky. The meteorite falls in the direction of the mouse cursor, damaging nearby enemies upon colliding with a block. They cannot pass through solid objects, but may pass through platforms. It also emits light particles which continue traveling after the impact.

Its best modifier is Mythical.

Notes

• The Meteor Staff's projectiles spawn approximately 40-42 tiles above the player. They collide with any block in their path, potentially even directly upon spawning.
• The Meteor Staff is rather similar to the Daedalus Stormbow in that they both attack from above.
• The Meteor Staff emits an explosion when it contacts enemies, allowing you to attack multiple entities at the same time.

Tips

• This weapon can easily kill all three Mechanical Bosses (preferably paired with the Golden Shower) because of its high fire rate (though there are safer tactics for The Destroyer).
• This weapon also helps against the Flying Dutchman, as the boss cannot pass through walls.
