The Corvid Harbinger Staff is a craftable post-Moon Lord summon weapon that is an upgrade to the Raven Staff. It summons a dark raven minion that flies around and rapidly charges towards enemies, occasionally teleporting near them and leaving a ring of dust before continuing its charge.
Its best modifier is Ruthless. The Mythical modifier provides the widest array of stat bonuses, but these primarily affect the initial summon rather than the resulting minion. Additionally, minions cannot deal critical hits. The only lasting advantage a Mythical Corvid Harbinger Staff has over a Ruthless one is knockback.
