Creates Projectile

• Honey Storm
  

The Honey Dipper is a Hardmode Collector that can be purchased from the Pro Bear after defeating all 3 Mechanical Bosses. It has a base Pollen Collection of 232.

When swung, it summons 3 to 4 Honey Storm beams from the sky that can pass through terrain until they reach either the height of the cursor when they were summoned or the height of the player, whichever is higher up.

Its best modifier is Connoisseur's.

Notes

• When a Honey Storm beam hits an enemy, it heals the user a small amount.
• If the Honey Dipper itself hits an enemy, the user is healed for a larger amount, and is granted the Honey buff for a short period.
• Honey Storm beams have the same base pollen collection as the Honey Dipper itself. This means the highest base pollen value is closer to 928-1160 depending on how many beams are summoned.

Trivia

• Due to being the first dust-based projectile added to the mod, the placeholder sprite for Honey Storm projectiles used to be the most used sprite in the mod, being used for 9 projectiles other than Honey Storm itself before the 1.0 update, where all dust-based projectiles were given their own colour-coded icons to be more easily identified.
