Phantom Lance

Phantom Lances are craftable Hardmode javelins. They automatically throw spears that slow down and fade away over time. Each spear leaves a trail of homing lost souls that deal less damage the later they are released. The damage linearly decreases from 70% of the spear's damage to 0 over 5 seconds. Both the souls and the spear go through blocks but do not pierce enemies.

Performing a stealth strike with Phantom Lances will cause the next javelin thrown to always move at constant velocity and soul damage is constant regardless of the projectile's lifespan.
