Veridian Mod/The Gourd

The Gourd is a Pre-Hardmode yoyo made with pumpkins. It deals moderate damage and has an added +10% critical strike compared to its peers, as well as comparatively high knockback.

It has a reach of 10 tiles and a spin time of 5 seconds.

Tips

 * Pumpkins spawn naturally during Halloween, making this an extremely valuable first weapon.
 * If it isn't Halloween, however, pumpkin seeds must be bought from the Dryad after any boss has been defeated, limiting the usefulness of this item.
 * The Horseman's Throw can be considered the Hardmode upgrade, as both are pumpkin-themed and are obtainable during Halloween-style events.
