As of right now, the pillars only provide players with two different weapons. Usually, one of these is clearly superior to the other, so I have chosen to rebalance the weapons a little.

-120 melee damage
-use time 6 (1200 DPS)
-3 knockback
-Deflects projectiles while attacking, similarly to the Selenian

I actually had this idea before :/ I had made a solar sword for it. They were gonna be in my mod :p
 
Nice work! some questions though:
  • the nebula gust is the Evolution Beast's attack?
  • what's the Arkhalis? do you mean the Solar Eruption?
  • you seem to be making the weapons akin to creatures' attacks, so why "Plague" debuff instead of "Distorted"?
  • would your Flux Staff work like the Lunar Portal and Rainbow Crystal staves? by summoning a stationary flux spawner? or would it move with you?
  • how would the stardust staff work? just swing it three times and get +30% summon damage?

otherwise, i love it! it's a great idea and i support it wholeheartedly!

  • I think its fine that it uses the Nebula Gust. Who wouldn't wanna use that beastly weapon :D
  • That is the Arkhalis http://terraria.wiki.gg/Arkhalis
  • Perhaps they are suppose to relate to enemy attacks of the lunar monstes
  • I believe its suppose to be similiar to how the stardust flow invader actually works when it summons minions
  • He probably means they stack on use or something similar

40 DPS? How long does the debuff last? Anything more than a second or two would be quite overpowered.

EDIT : Otherwise the rest seem like good ideas.

I honestly think it's pretty fair, considering that otherwise its DPS is noticeably lower than the Vortex Beater or S.D.M.G.
