Chadwick presents... A FLOATING BRAIN THAT SUCKS ON ENEMIES
So I was thinking 'hey, I should make a suggestion with a lot of thought put into it' when I noticed that there are only 3 pre-HM summoning weapons. I thought of the optimal point in the game to introduce another summoning weapon (taking into consideration all other summoning weapons, their rarity, when you get them, how they work) and I concluded that the Brain of Cthulhu could drop it. Not only would it be at a moment in the game where you probably only have had the chance to get a Slime Staff (which is very rare so you probably won't have it anyways), but the Brain also doesn't have a lot of drops at the moment. This would solve two small problems, including the lack of Pre-HM summoning weapons that makes three, and that way
You just thought of it and 5 minutes later you started writing down the suggestion, isn't it
Yeah it just popped into my head.
Thought so. Anyways, what's it?
It's a brain that sucks on enemies.
... A metroid?
Yes. Wait- no, it's
It sounds like a metroid.
... Well maybe I based it off of metroids unknowingly.
Anyways, doesn't sounds too great.
Just wait, it's pretty nice, actually. *ahem*
Brain Staff
Type: Summon Weapon
Damage: 10
Knockback: 0
Max Stack: 1
Mana: 10
Velocity: 10
Use Time: 27
Tooltip: Summons a brain to fight for you.
AI: The brain will fly after you, until it perceives an enemy. It then teleports a few blocks above said enemy (which looks like when the BoC teleports) and quickly lands on the enemy. There it deals 10 damage per second. When the enemy is dead, it teleports back to you, and again just flies after you. In other words, it's a lot like the Piranha Gun but Summoning instead of Ranged, and you don't need to hold down the left mouse button.
Dropped by: Brain of Cthulhu, 10%.
Brain (buff)
Type: Buff
Effects: Brain.
Tooltip: Are you insane in the membrane? (it's a reference, Terraria loves those)
I put a whopping 30 minutes of work into this one.
Here is a support banner:
And as suggested, here is a corruption alternative.
Worm Staff
Type: Summon Weapon
Damage: 15
Knockback: 0
Max Stack: 1
Mana: 10
Velocity: 10
Use Time: 27
Tooltip: Summons a worm to fight for you.
AI: The worm will always try to be in the ground. If that's absolutely impossible, it will fly after- and try to circle around the player. When it notices an enemy, it launches itself at it. After hitting it, it will dig into the ground again (if possible, else it will take a long turn) and return to the enemy to hit it again. It'll probably only hit enemies once every ~2 seconds, so it has significantly higher damage than the Brain, which hits once per second. When the enemy is dead, it digs (or flies, if there's no ground to dig) back to the player.
The amount of segments the worm consists of would increase per summon.
Dropped by: Eater of Worlds, 10%.
Worm (buff)
Type: Buff
Effects: Worm.
Tooltip: Shut up and dig Eater!
