The Bindeklinge in use. Note how Lightmass does not home in on the Slime behind solid blocks.

The Bindeklinge is a Pre-Hardmode sword dropped by Erhan, Anglonic High Priest. Upon landing a critical strike, it fires out 4 to 6 homing Lightmass projectiles that deal 7 damage each, ignore tiles, and can pierce 1 enemy. Additionally, Lightmass despawns twice as fast while inside of solid tiles and will not target enemies behind tiles.

Its best modifier is Legendary.
