The Slayer's Rocket Fist in use.

The Slayer's Rocket Fist is a craftable Hardmode melee weapon that can also be dropped from King Slayer III. When used, it will launch a homing Fist Rocket towards the cursor. Holding the attack button will increase the damage of the Fist Rocket by 1.11% per frame. Releasing the button after charging for more than 1.5 seconds will instead propel the player in the direction of their cursor. Hitting an enemy with the dash will deal 400% of the base damage and bounce the player backwards.

Its best modifier is Godly.
