Terrarian
Okay, so I've gotten ridiculously far into Terraria with my first profile, and have begun another character. I'm used to being a Mage/Wizard character, and I've suddenly realized that pre-hardmode Terraria is very lacking in good magic weapons and armor. Firstly, the only reliable magic weapons available early on are the gem staffs, and the only magic-themed armor available is jungle armor. The gem staffs are alright- moderate damage output, but hard to get the hang of using. The jungle armor is downright absurd- for one, it requires stingers (they've always been hard to get, with the dangerous jungle biome as well as dropping only one at a time from hornet enemies), as well as one of each type of gem. After you get the armor, you've got nothing to show for it but a measly 13 defense and a mild increase to mana and its regeneration.
So I pose the question- are there any wieldly, moderately easily-obtained magic weapons for the beginning of the game?
Note: My world has a crimson biome, so the Crimson rod may be an option...?
