Beholder Staff

The Beholder Staff is a Hardmode summon weapon that is obtained from the Coznix, The Fallen Beholder. It spawns a Mini Beholder to fire energy projectiles at enemies from afar. In addition, having a Mini Beholder summoned will highlight all enemies onscreen with a red light, similar to the effects of the Hunter Potion. Like other minions, summoned Mini Beholders are invincible and follow the player for an unlimited amount of time, unless the player dies, summons a replacement minion, or cancels the buff. Additionally, Mini Beholders cost 2 minion slots each to summon.

Tips

 * Mini Beholder attacks pierce, making this a strong weapon against segmented enemies like The Destroyer.

Trivia

 * This item is one of five (the others being the Viscount's Cane, Taboo Wand, Steamgunner Controller and Ember Staff) Summon weapons that have a minimum requirement to use, requiring 2 minion slots to summon 1 of its minion.
