Items Tempest Staff and new summon!

Duke Fishron
Hi, I have a suggestion for a new item and a rework of an existing item.

My idea is to rework the Tempest Staff from being a projectile based summon weapon not unlike the Hornet and Imp Staves to a sentry turret. Basically a mini sharknado that doesn't move, and only fires the projectiles after being summoned.

That would leave Duke Fishron having no non-sentry summoning weapons, but there can be a new summon weapon for it:

A weapon that summons mini-duke fishrons that fly around the player, and charges at enemies much like Duke Fishron does. Maybe they can even share some attacks in their arsenals.

I am proposing these changes because of the nature of the Tempest Staff already seeming like it would work much better as a sentry than a normal summon, but the Tempest Staff as a summon seems.. rather lackluster compared to the force that is the Tsunami, the Bubblegun, the Razorblade Typhoon, and the Flairon.
 
I support, but i dont think duke should drop a new summon on top of the Tempest sentry, since Deerclops also doesnt drop a normal summon on top of the houndius shootius.
 
spoilers for 1.4.5 :

duke is already getting a whip added to his drops as seen from spoilers so giving him a new summon is unneeded with this change
