Damage: 30

Use time: Normal for summons

Mana cost: 20

Rarity: Light Red

Best modifier: Ruthless

The Paper Boy Bell is a bicycle bell that is a summon weapon. It’s sold by the Travelling Merchant for 20 gold in Hardmode’s start, and is a decent early Hardmode summon weapon.

It summons a paper boy, a little kid who rides on a bicycle and throws newspapers at enemies. The projectiles pierce multiple times and travel fast. The Paper Boy fires fast piercing projectiles, and is decently accurate, but sometimes has to get more newspapers from a bag to reload. This happens after about 20 projectiles.

Tooltip: “It’s honest work”

I think this could make a decent Traveling Merchant weapon.
He already sells some pretty good Melee, Ranged and Magic weapons in early Hardmode, so a new Summon weapon would fit well in the Traveling Merchant's inventory.

Sure! Thanks!

I’m not sure about the newspapers piercing, but if you feel they need that power boost I would remove the need to stop and restock. Either way yeah this is an original and fitting starter summon
