The Birb Staff is a Pre-Hardmode summon weapon that occasionally drops from trees. It summons a Bird that flies around enemies and swoops in to attack to fight for you.
It's best modifier is Ruthless. The Mythical modifier provides the widest array of stats bonuses, but these primarily affect the initial summon rather than the resulting minion. Additionally, Minions cannot deal Critical hits. The only significant advantage a Mythical Birb Staff has over a Ruthless one is knockback.
Note that even though the birbs can go through blocks and attack enemies from there, they can get stuck between a couple of blocks with a space between them.
Trivia
- Its name is likely a reference to the internet meme "Birb". It's purpose, however, may be due to the lack of easily obtainable summon weapons early game.
