Sandslasher

The Sandslasher is a craftable Hardmode non-consumable rogue weapon. It automatically throws a large sand shuriken projectile that pierces twice and is unaffected by gravity. It speeds up horizontally and deals more damage as it travels, up to a maximum of +42 horizontal velocity and over 10x damage after 10 seconds. It cannot be fired directly upwards, it will curve to either the left or right when attempting to do so.

Performing a stealth strike with the Sandslasher will cause the next shuriken to release sand clouds as it travels, which each deal 40% of the weapon's damage. The clouds are similar to the Duststorm in a Bottle and will move outwards from the blade, disappearing shortly after their creation.
