The Spark Taser is a craftable, non-consumable Hardmode throwing weapon that can autofire. It throws red energy knives that ignore gravity, pierce multiple enemies and rapidly shoot beams at nearby enemies. Each energy knife can shoot beams up to a maximum of six times.
Like most non-consumable throwing weapons, using this weapon builds up an exhaustion meter that appears below the player. Not using the weapon will make the meter slowly go back down. However, if it becomes completely filled, the user will be inflicted with the Exhaustion debuff, causing all non-consumable throwing weapons to deal massively decreased damage for some time. The meter resets after the debuff ends.
Its best modifier is Unreal.

Notes
- While the electricity daggers have low knockback, their ability to damage enemies rapidly allows them to stun-lock small groups.
- The beams are also incredibly accurate, making them good for fast enemies.
