The Slag Breaker is a craftable Pre-Hardmode melee weapon. It can charge up a powerful attack by holding down its left button: after holding down, indicated by the weapon turning orange in color, it can be released to launch a hammer that acts like a boomerang and release a tiny spread of flames and inflicts the On Fire! debuff. It can be wound up to deal increased damage.

Its best modifier is Godly. It cannot get modifiers that affect size.
