Rarity: Green

Knockback: Weak

Best modifier: Mythical

Mana cost: 7

Use time: 21

A purple tome with purple symbols on it. The Chaos Ball is a basic magic weapon that drops from members of Goblin Armies on occasion. It is dropped at a similar frequency to the Harpoon.

The Chaos Ball fires the projectile that Goblin Sorcerer uses to attack with. However, said chaos ball projectile doesn’t pierce walls or enemies, and travels a little slower than the enemy projectile. The Chaos Ball doesn’t even ricochet off walls. While the Chaos Ball has several drawbacks, one has to remember that this weapon is early game.

For its tier, the Chaos Ball is very good at long range affairs, given its modest fire rate and accuracy. It also works as a projectile that isn’t affected by gravity.

This weapon seems to exist to make the Goblin Army less annoying.

Tooltip: Throws a ball of entropy

The problem is will projectile go through the blocks
If yes it'll be overpowered unless damage nerf or mana usage increase, if not it would be bad so it might actually need a huge damage buff or you can basically use it twice slower than crystal storm

Oh it doesn’t go through blocks, that would be way too op at this stage of the game; it’s just a basic magic weapon for early players

What’s the use time and mana cost?
Also the projectile goblin sorcerers use is called a “chaos ball” but we don’t need to talk about that

Maybe 7 mana cost and use time of 20?

Changed the name to match the projectile of Chaos Ball, and also because Shadow Ball made it sound way too similar to Shadow Orbs

Not a bad idea, but not sure how actually worth it the item would be.

should it have better stats?

I don’t really know enough about weapon balancing to say, but it just sounds kind of outclassed for the point in the game you would get it.

Bumped up damage to 26

I like this. Just make it a basic, straightforward, reliable damage dealer for that stage of the game. It doesn't need to be complicated. Make it like a buffed gem staff and we're good.
