Is it worth it to get the Desert Tiger Staff

[Spoody]

I happened upon the desert key while playing and i just got the Desert Tiger Staff im using it as a summoner with 6 summons but the sanguine staff just seems better

Yes, it's an amazing staff for grinding more keys. Literally attacks all enemies on the screen by teleporting from one side to another.

Each summon makes the enemy stronger bit by bit... +30 damage per each summon... At 4 summons it grows from a baby to adult. At 7 summons it becomes an elder.

The only disadvantage it is a ground based summon that only attacks when on the ground.

No. The tiger isn't worth it.
At the point you can get it you can also get Terraprisma. Which is an a lot stronger summon.
You can also barely afk farm the underground desert thanks to SPirits and worms going through walls.
You are better off learning the EoLs attack pattern and getting a Terraprisma.

It's still worth it as a stop-gap. Some people are unable to learn how the pattern works. Spirits/worms aren't really a problem for farming it. They only appear if it isn't a pure desert. Worms can be dealt with just by having it higher above the ground so the worms can't melt your face off.

Plus there are different types of summons for different ways of playing the game. For flight the Tiger staff is ♥♥♥♥. But you are standing AFK.

All interesting advice, luckily i got the desert key without trying

[HD Blooms537]

its only worth it if you have all slots for your summoners on the tiger

[Auric Carnage]

Apparently, each summon causes it to initiate a normally random rolling attack which allows it to attack airborne targets; What this means is that while not naturally suited to aerial combat, it's special attack deals heavy damage on each summon to flying targets... Imo, that's very good b/c I'm tired of using secondary spells and melee. Forget that nonsense. I'll just spam this until I get something better.

everyone's sleeping on the knives you get from the enchanted sword drops in the underground hallow.

If you create an AFK farm for the key, you are not high up, since mobs will spawn above you. I cannot think of an AFK arena in the Underground desert that makes it Dune-Splicer-proof.
If one wants a good summons, Ravens are much better than the Tiger. They also do much more damage and are airborne.
I mean, The Terraprisma is the king of Summons.

I am pretty sure the Blades are more effective on enemies with a lot of defense.

Probably but i just found sanguine staff to be more effective overall

This post is old, yes but
Dude, eol is stronger than moon lord in every aspect but health, you arent winning eol until youve done both moons for gear and got all biome chests for it on top of farming plantera and the solar eclipses. The staff is great with my personal combo:
Best skelebro scarab + hercules beetle + necromatic scroll+ summon emblem + post queen bee tiki thing + spooky armor and all customs, the staff is insane

This is so old how did you even find it

You don't need biome chest weapons or any festival moon gear or eclipse gear. You can easily do EoL with pre-mech gear.
