Purple Counterweight

Quarter moon trading in the deep underground

Sold by the wandering Skeleton Merchant for 5 gold during First Quarter and Third Quarter moon phases. Striking a monster with a yoyo releases an auxiliary purple counterweight that spins outwards from the player. It delivers kinetic impacts calculated from the equipped yoyo weapon, repelling nearby enemies while the primary string stays focused on high-priority targets during difficult encounters.

Melee utility and progression toward the yoyo bag

This secondary projectile provides defensive perimeter protection in cramped caverns where swarming enemies approach from multiple directions simultaneously. When taken to a Tinkerer's Workshop, fusing it with any string yields a Strung Counterweight. That intermediate trinket then joins with a Yoyo Glove to assemble the Yoyo Bag, the ultimate offensive accessory for dedicated yoyo combatants.

Trivia

• When placed in a vanity slot, the accessory overrides other counterweight colors with purple.
• The counterweight projectile ignores gravity and orbits for the duration of the yoyo throw.
• Hostile monsters struck by the counterweight receive full knockback from your melee modifiers.
