The Gargoyle Scepter is a craftable pre-Hardmode summon weapon that serves as a Sentient variant of the Imp Staff. When used, it summons Grug minion who takes up 2 minion slots, with only 1 Grug being able to exist at a time. He attacks by hovering above enemies and launching a volley of 5 Cursed Fireballs at them, followed by charging horizontally at them. The Fireballs deal 50% of base damage and inflict the Cursed Inferno debuff on hit.

Its best modifier is Ruthless. The Mythical modifier provides the widest array of stats bonuses, but these primarily affect the initial summon rather than the resulting minion. Additionally, minions cannot deal critical hits. The only significant advantage a Mythical Gargoyle Scepter has over a Ruthless one is knockback.
