How to Get the Raven Staff in Terraria – Weapon Guide

The Raven Staff is a Hardmode summon weapon in Terraria that players can use to summon minions that track down enemies and deal damage on contact. The best part about the weapon is once you summon the minions, they will follow you till they come in contact with an enemy. They don’t despawn.

That said, if you were looking to get the Raven Staff in Terraria, here is how you can do it. 

How to get the Raven Staff in Terraria

In Terraria, you can get the Raven Staff as a drop item from the Hardmode, post-Plantera mini-boss Pumpking, who spawns during the Pumpkin Moon event.

The drop rate of the Raven Staff ranges between 1.79–14.29%, depending on the enemy wave. So you may have to farm a few Pumpking mini-bosses to obtain the said weapon. 

But since the Pumpking is the final mini-boss of the Pumpkin Moon event in Terraria, you may have to trigger the event more than once.

• Pumpkin (30)
• Ectoplasm (5)
• Hallowed Bar (10)

Once you have gathered the above items, go to any Mythril Anvil or Orichalcum Anvil and craft yourself a Pumpkin Moon Medallion. That way, you can trigger the event and fight the mini-boss once more.
