The True Light's Anguish is a craftable, non-consumable Hardmode throwing weapon that can autofire. It throws corrupted daggers that are not affected by gravity and inflict the Light Curse and Cursed Inferno debuffs onto hit enemies. Additionally, hitting enemies causes the user to unleash a barrage of cursed tendrils that seek out the hit target to deal additional damage.
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.
