Conch Shell playing animation. Note the increased damage dealt to the above Target Dummy.
The Conch Shell is a Pre-Hardmode Bard weapon that is dropped by Queen Jellyfish. When used, it releases a wave of sound which falls downwards before sharply rising up. The wave of sound deals 50% increased damage to enemies above the player but deal 50% less damage to them through tiles. Outside of the direction fired, the angle the sound waves rise is static and is not affected by the position of the cursor.
When used, it empowers nearby players and the user with the Critical Strike Chance II empowerment.
Its best modifier is Fabled.
Notes
- Due to the increased damage to enemies above you, this weapon is particularly strong against large, airborne enemies such as Demons or the Viscount.
