Talk:Leaf Blower

Mythical Impossible Confirmed

Used an inventory editor to forcibly apply the prefix to the weapon. When the game loaded the character, it outright stripped the modifier off, leaving no prefix. If I had to guess, it's a bug due to the weapon previously not using mana, which would prevent Mythical from working correctly. Redigit forgot to add the coding to allow the Mythical prefix when he added a mana cost to the weapon. I think it's probably a bug and should be brought to his attention. 99.6.26.155 03:02, 15 October 2013 (UTC)

This occurs because it uses such a low amount of mana, therefore it cannot get any prefix that lowers mana usage. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lionbryce101 (talk • contribs)

This property of modifiers is already understood and noted on the page proper. Please check the date of a comment before replying to it. Gearzein (talk) 17:06, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Incosistencies with Modifiers

"Because the Leaf Blower uses so little mana, it is unable to acquire the Mythical modifier, nor any other modifier that reduces mana usage. " "Its best Modifier is Masterful. "

I've got one with Masterful now, so that second line isn't wrong... Except, Masterful reduces mana usage by 20%. Is it the speed that prevents it from being Mythical perhaps? Because it has a base mana usage of 4+, so therefore can benefit from any Mana Cost reductions according to modifiers. 207.55.55.128 00:14, 24 July 2015 (UTC)

Obviously, per above, being unable to get mythical has nothing to do mana reduction. It has been able to get masterful for at least 1.5 years and godly is arguably as good or better, see http://www.terrariaonline.com/threads/leaf-blower-masterful-vs-godly.118760/ for a relevant discussion. More testing is required to determine why it can not have mythical or what other limitations it may have, but those can be added later; for now I will update the page to more accurately reflect what we do know.

The rule is that it can't obtain a modifier if one of the stats modified by it doesn't change. For example it can't obtain the Mythical (-10% mana cost), because the resulting mana cost would become 3.6, which rounds back to 4, which means it didn't change. However masterful reduces mana cost by 20%, so the cost will become 3.2, which rounds to 3. Now the mana cost did change, thus this modifier is obtainable. --0icke0 (talk) 09:51, 27 July 2015 (UTC)

Use time (speed) of Leaf Blower

There's line in changelogs about weapon speed being improved from 7 to 6, but use time in weapon characteristics is 7.

I guess it should be changed to 6 as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zontik20l2 (talk • contribs) at 16:23, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

7 is correct - this is a leftover from when the wiki used to display weapon use time as the actual use time -1 (no idea why). I've gone ahead and updated the numbers in the history section now though, thank you for pointing it out! --Eraloiz (talk) 16:41, 27 March 2020 (UTC)
