Trivia

• This weapon can be considered a successor to the Venom Staff, as it has a similar method of attack with much better stats and a better debuff.
  • It can also be considered a sidegrade to the Astralachnea Staff as it has higher damage and velocity compared to the Astralachnea Staff, but the Plague Staff doesn’t have homing capabilities.
