Wasteland Fang
Overview
Section titled “Overview”Wasteland Fang is a pre-Hardmode Desert Scourge melee drop—a chained beast jaw on a flail. Swinging does not true-melee hit; instead the jaw flies out and, at full extension, opens its mouth to spit sand dunes.
“Bounces off blocks and accelerates when retracting, opens its mouth and spits out several sand orbs”

Combat Behavior
Section titled “Combat Behavior”Left click throws the jaw:
- Accelerates outward for about 0.17 s
- Slows near max range; at about 0.27 s spits 4 Desert Scourge sand dunes (~half jaw damage)
- Then retracts on the chain
Wall hits bounce the jaw and immediately start retraction—wall bounces return faster than a full outbound arc, so corners speed up your rhythm. After about 1.3 s the chain enables wall-pierce so it cannot get stuck.
