So!
It personally feels like there should be more use to the Phaseblade as a weapon. The weapon itself
is an interesting one, but we didn't need it later in the game.
I propose a new upgrade, with a new crafting recipe.
The
PHASESPINNER!
Item Sprites:
Description
Phasespinner would be an end-game, post-moonlord melee weapon with unique attacks and traits.
The Phasespinner would be a very fast sword, capable of the third-fastest Autoswing in the game, with a use time of 4 (Insanely Fast), beating the Fetid Baghnaks and Bladed Glove as the fastest weapons in the game. Its knockback would be 3 (Very Weak). While Autoswinging, the weapon is unique in that it doesn't disappear or reset its position in the player's hand when swung. Instead, it is held up at the angle nearest to the cursor (like when a drill or chainsaw is held) and the sword spins in the player's hand (much like the Sky Dragon's Fury; hence the name, Phasespinner.) Without any modifers, the blades reach about 4 tiles in any direction around the pivoting point (the player's hand).
While using this attack, the user can reflect certain lasers back at the shooter (the Moon Lord's lasers, Retinazer's lasers, and the Destroyer's lasers are not reflected; however, the Destroyer's Probes' lasers and lasers of normal enemies -- such as Gastropods or Ice Elementals -- are reflected). The reflection of the projectile is similar in accuracy to that of the Gatligator, which is a 45 degree angle. As such the reflective ability should not remain as the player's main offense.
The Phasespinner would also have an alternate attack, activated by Right-Clicking. This alternate attack would consist of it being thrown like a boomerang, and following the cursor like the Flying Knife until the button is released.
It has a rarity of red and a sell price of 20 Gold.
Stats
[Red/White/Purple/Yellow/Blue/Green] Phasespinner
80 Damage
4% Critical Strike Chance
Insanely Fast Speed
Very Weak Knockback
'This thing could cut something off if you're not careful...'
Crafting
The Phasespinners would be crafted with:
(Phasesaber) x2 (Same color, obviously)
(Luminite Bar) x15
x15
The Phasespinners would be crafted at:
Ancient Manipulator
References
This item is a reference to the Lightsabers of the Star Wars franchise.
The need for Crystal Shards for crafting reflects the need for a Kyber Crystal to create a Lightsaber in Star Wars.
This item specifically is a reference to the first Inquisitor's Lightsaber from the television series, Star Wars: Rebels. The ability to spin around a circular handle comes from his Lightsaber design.
The ability of the Phasespinner to hover in place with the cursor is reminiscent of the commonly used ability to use the Force to move a Jedi's Lightsaber in the Star Wars franchise.
(Basically, this entire weapon is inspired by Star Wars
)
