The Sky Dragon's Fury in action.

The Sky Dragon's Fury is a Hardmode, post-Golem melee weapon that possesses two different modes of attack.

When pressing the ⚒ Use / Attack button while held, the Sky Dragon's Fury spins in a 360° radius around the player, dealing damage and emitting visual trails of blue energy.

When pressing the ⚷ Open / Activate button while held, the Sky Dragon's Fury performs an alternate attack: it swings once towards the cursor, firing three blue energy orbs at a spreading 45° angle during the swing. The energy orbs burst into damaging Electrospheres after traveling for 0.25 seconds or upon contact with enemies or blocks. The Electrospheres continuously damage entities within radius, and last for a random duration between 1 second and 2.5 seconds before dissipating. The Sky Dragon's Fury itself during this attack, the energy orbs, and the Electrospheres all deal 50% of the weapon's damage (70 base damage).[1] Additionally, they have different critical strike chances: the Sky Dragon's Fury itself and the energy orbs benefit from melee critical strike bonuses, while the Electrospheres benefit from ranged critical strike bonuses.[2]

The Sky Dragon's Fury has a 1/4 (25%) chance of being dropped by Betsy during Tier 3 of the Old One's Army event.

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.

Notes

  • The Sky Dragon's Fury applies 6 ticks[3] of local invincibility frames upon hit.[4]
  • The Electrospheres apply 8 ticks of global invincibility frames upon hit, meaning they can hit for up to 7.5 times per second.[4]
  • The Sky Dragon's Fury cannot get attack speed and size modifiers.
  • Melee speed affects the attack speed and projectile fire rate of the alternate attack, but has no effect on the primary attack.
    • Due to a bug, at extremely high melee speed (173% or higher) only two energy orbs will be fired with each use.[5]
  • The energy orbs created by the alternate attack can inflict the debuffs from the bonuses of flasks, Frost armor, and the Magma Stone (and its upgrades).
    • The Electrospheres, however, can only inflict the Frost armor's debuff, as they are considered ranged projectiles, not melee.
  • The Electrospheres created by the Sky Dragon's Fury's alternate attack and the Electrosphere Launcher cannot overlap. The oldest existing rings will dissipate upon overlapping with a new one.
