The Magic Stick is a low tier but high power magic item which sends a barrage of slow moving leaves which are heavily affected by gravity, with almost no starting mana cost. It is useful for Mages and Acolytes in the Pre-Hardmode game due to its surprising damage, especially with multiple projectiles fired at once. It is recommended to not use this weapon in Hardmode, as it has little power against the ever-increasing defense and health of monsters on such a high tier. It is best used when your Magic stat is maxed, just like any magic weapon.
The disadvantages of the Magic Stick compared to other magic weapons or projectiles is the inability to hit objects above the player, besides the immediate vicinity. It's extremely low knockback can also barely hold most enemies at bay, with them often slowly gaining on the player even with repeat attacks.
