White Paper Airplane

Clean paper aeronautics and windy event drops

Obtained as a bonus drop from balloon slimes drifting across windy surface biomes, the White Paper Airplane provides a stylish cosmetic variant of the standard paper glider. It inflicts 4 base ranged damage and 2 knockback at 17 use time. The plane utilizes smooth aerodynamic physics, adjusting its drift according to current atmospheric breezes. Releasing it during strong gusts lets the glider catch updrafts and stay airborne across considerable horizontal distances.

Ground retrieval mechanics versus liquid hazards

Sharing identical combat statistics with the classic Paper Airplane, it serves as a lightweight ranged distraction during early exploration. Planes that settle on solid ground after flight can be retrieved into player inventory, saving precious ammunition while traveling. Submerging the plane in pools of water or honey causes it to dissolve instantly. Because it is a consumable thrown weapon, it cannot receive reforging modifiers from the Goblin Tinkerer.

Trivia

• White Paper Airplanes share the exact same aerodynamic flight calculations as regular paper airplanes.
• They drop in stacks of two to five from balloon slimes during Windy Day weather.
