Needle and its functions use against target dummies.
The Needle is a Hardmode throwing weapon that is always found in the Weaver Chest in the Empress' Den. It throws a giant needle that deals damage to enemies and returns to the player after reaching 30 tiles. It has two unique functions while using the weapon with a corresponding key:
- Pressing up while using the item will make the needle act like a Grappling Hook.
- Pressing down while using the item and being midair performs a Thread Flurry attack that deals damage to enemies nearby. It also stops the player in place.
Its best modifier is Unreal.
Trivia
- This weapon is a reference to the character Hornet from the game Hollow Knight.
- The item's tooltip is a reference to one of Hornet's quotes.
