It sounds more like a weapon youd use when you’re trying to mind your own business, a kind of basic weapon of sorts. Its homing lets you deal with mobs without effort; no aiming nor going over to em.

One of the best uses of this weapon is actually for healing via the spectre armor. The high damage and homing makes it a very reliable and consistent method to keep your HP topped off when dealing with tougher fights, even with the damage debuff that the spectre hood gives you. Overall I'd say it's a great weapon to have in your back pocket for utility when playing mage.

I think the main problem with this weapon is that the Razorblade Typhoon exists. Higher damage, significantly higher projectile speed, much better tracking, and each projectile has infinite piercing for its duration (which I believe is 4.5 seconds). It also only causes 6 ticks of invincibility on enemies, compared to the usual 10 ticks that other piercing weapons apply, meaning it can hit 10 times a second instead of 6 (just saw this on the wiki; don't know if it's actually true). It is incredible for crowd control, and unlike the Spectre Staff, it works really well for fast moving bosses like Duke Fishron and Empress of Light. Maybe Re-Logic nerfed it in 1.4.4 though, so someone would have to correct me on that if they did, but I doubt they nerfed it so much that it's worse than the Spectre Staff.

ironically, i always preferred the shadowbeam staff. i valued rapid and instant hitscan-like attacks more than some homing. but on a serious note, part of the reason it falls back so hard is because most of the post-plant pre-golem tend to be so quickly outclassed. the best mage weapon pre-ml was basically always razorblade typhoon since it could do everything the three dungeon staffs could do while also attacking rapidly and for high damage. duke fishron can be beaten without too much difficulty basically directly after golem, and golem has and always will be able to be killed with the same gear used to kill plantera. the horrendous snowballing of boss kills only means that the dungeon loot is typically rarely worth getting as the 3 main classes. summoners like myself gotta do all that grinding though, the main bosses don't offer a whole lot for us.

I tried to grind for this weapon the first time I got to post plantera in a MMFTW playthrough. It was so painfully tedious and my luck was so bad I just went for the razorpine and stuck with that.

After the buffs this became one of my favorite magic weapons due to how good it is for how simple it is to use

I think one of the biggest reasons I wouldn't go out of my way to get this is two words- *Razorblade Typhoon* The Razorblade Typhoon kinda just does the Spectre Staff's job, but better
