Not to be confused with the Royal Scepter, a vanity accessory sold by the Princess.

The Resonance Scepter is a Hardmode, post-Plantera magic weapon that has a 1/8 (12.5%) chance of being dropped by the Princess. When used, it creates pink circular auras at the cursor's location, which expand and then collapse into sparkles over the course of 1 second.[1] The aura deals rapid damage[2] and knockback. The aura can strike enemies infinitely, but its damage will be reduced by 2% after each strike.[3] The Resonance Scepter is held in the player's hand and emits glowing pink sparkles when used.

Although the projectile appears to instantly travel to its target, there must be a clear line of sight between the player and the cursor's location; the projectile will be summoned at the location of impact with the first block.

Its best modifier is Mythical.

Notes

A player using the Resonance Scepter against Target Dummies.

Trivia

  • The Princess uses the same attack when threatened by enemies, although the scepter itself is not shown.
  • The properties of its projectiles are similar to the Life Drain: they damage enemies in a radius, and they appear to travel instantly but are stopped by blocks.

History

  • Desktop 1.4.2.3: No longer drops pre-Hardmode, if the Princess is somehow obtained pre-Hardmode.
