.png){kind=small}
The Kariumu's Favor is a craftable Hardmode 
Spatial weapon that is made obtainable after Duke Fishron has been defeated.
Its best modifier is Demonic, as it does not have any knockback, and thus cannot get modifiers that affect it.
In Game Description
This weapon has a unique damage type; inherits bonuses from all damage classes .
Attacks barrage foes with close-ranged strikes; right-click to dash towards your cursor, becoming Invincible for a very short duration (1 second cooldown).
Critical strikes grant Alacrity for 3 seconds, increasing attack and movement speed.
Hold the Weapon Action Key to slow yourself and activate Absorption , absorbing all incoming damage while draining HP (HP drain is magnified over time).
10 HP is required to activate Absorption and effects are disabled below 50 HP.
Absorbed damage is converted into Potential Energy , and a portion of Potential Energy is consumed upon striking a foe to deal magnified damage.
Potential Energy slowly depletes over time and quickly diminishes out of combat.
When inflicted with specific debuffs, gain Thermodynamics depending on incoming debuffs.
On Fire, Shadowflame, Burning: Consume the debuff to increase the potency of Absorption for 10 seconds, increasing the amount of Potential Energy acquired.
Frozen, Chilled, Frostburn: Potential Energy will drain at an increased rate.
Damage scales with world progression.

- ↑ [1], Only the highest value applies, listed values replace the old ones and are not cumulative (EX: if you defeat Queen Bee and Skeletron, the attack of this weapon will be 19.)
- ↑ [2], A bug currently causes the damage scaling to overwrite ignore any damage increase from reforging the weapon. Other damage increases still work as expected.
