The Defective Sphere is a Hardmode rogue boomerang that is dropped by Deadly Spheres. Defective Spheres can be stacked up to five times, the amount of spheres thrown depends on the amount of stacks the player has. Spheres thrown can become one of four variants, listed below.
Performing a stealth strike with Defective Spheres will cause all 4 sphere types to be thrown at once, regardless of stack limit, while making each sphere deal 65% damage instead of 100%.
The Defective Sphere cannot be reforged, and therefore cannot have modifiers.
