The Zeus' Lightning is a Hardmode staff dropped by Marble Mimics. It launches lightning at foes, which can stun lock them due to its strong knockback. The Lightning will occasionally spew more bolts of lightning in random directions. Zeus' Lightning pierces infinitely, making it extremely useful for bosses like The Destroyer.

Strangely, Zeus' Lightning sells for 1 Copper Coin, which is even less than the Copper Shortsword, the weapon you start with. This also means that no matter what, Zeus' Lightning will always cost 1 Copper Coin to reforge.

Its best Modifier is Mythical.
