The Ball O' Hurt attacking Target Dummies.

The Ball O' Hurt is a pre-Hardmode flail that emits small Corruption-themed visual particles. The Ball O' Hurt has a 1/5 (20%) chance of being obtained from destroying Shadow Orbs found in the Corruption or a 1/5 (20%) chance from Corrupt Crates and Defiled Crates, which are fished in the Corruption.

Its best modifier is Godly or Demonic. Both modifiers increase the average damage output by the same amount. However, Ruthless might be preferred if the player already has very high critical strike chance.

Tips

  • It is particularly useful when fighting worm-type enemies or the Eater of Worlds, as it can do almost constant damage to multiple segments.
