Poseidon’s Trident

Poseidon’s Trident is a Hardmode, post-Moon Lord melee weapon, and is made an Atlantean Forge, and the materials can be found in The Depths biome at Layer 3. These enchantments boost it’s power, and also increases the power of current abilities. It also has different modes which can be selected through scrolling. Additionally, press the C key twice to summon a ”peace bubble“ which neutralizes hostile enemies in range, but this ability will not affect certain enemies unless enchanted. Then you can press either of the two keys, X or G. X will toggle Attack Mode, any entitiy is in range will be controlled to attack the target. To target your foe, simply click on them. Pressing G will initiate Defense Mode, which will rapidly restore health and mana and make your minions guard you, but will slow you down. Double-tap one of each key respective to their modes to make them neutral once more. Double-tapping C too will also end the “peace bubble.” This ability is only available when the Trident is in hand.

Spear
Used as a regular spear, at the size of about 1.5x the size of the Chlorophyte Partisan. Deals incredible damage at around 220, and extreme knockback. Like any other spear, it pierces enemies. Speed is 16 ticks.

Throw (Enchantment)
Hold down right click to charge the Trident, (about 19 ticks) and then release to throw. The Trident will be restored to your inventory after 5 ticks, but the Trident thrown will remain until the next time it is re-thrown, where it will disintegrate. It will pierce through enemies when at 50% and higher charge, and deals about 195 damage.

Sword (Enchantment)
Is used like a sword, but can be used in all four directions, up, down, left and right, but does not go down when a tile is beneath the player. Deals around 200 damage and is very fast. (12 ticks)

Aquashield (Enchantment)
Hold down right click to rapidly spin the Trident (3 ticks) in the direction you desire, and absorbs 100% of the damage taken on the first hit, but will loose DR. on the 20th hit. It also takes all of the damage absorbed and adds it to the damage that will reflect to the attacker. The base damage of the Aquashield is 90. E.g, the attacker deals 100 damage and is the first hit, so 100 damage is added to the base and then reflects to the attacker. But in other hits, such as the 5th hit, 75% of the damage will be added. So 75 will be added, 165 is reflected.

Trivia

 * Inspired by the DC film “Aquaman” and the Sacred Trident Of Atlan. The abilities are also a reference in the movie to just how much else tridents are capable of, excluding the magical powers.
