Strongest Link

The Strongest Link is a Pre-Hardmode sentry summon weapon that has a chance to be found in locked Gold Chests in the Dungeon, alongside normal dungeon items; it can also be obtained from Golden Lock Boxes. It spawns a Spinning Spike Ball whose central pivot point is tethered to the tile it was summoned on. The Spinning Spike Ball has a static chain length of around 6 tiles and damages foes on contact. Additionally, enemies will be afflicted with the Gouge debuff for a short period of time on hit. The Strongest Link can only be used if the cursor is directly over a block or platform, and fails to summon the Spinning Spike Ball otherwise.
