Trivia

 * Its ability, along with Wither Impact, has the 2nd highest explosion radius of any ability, at 6 blocks. The highest is the Skeleton Hat.
 * Because Wither Impact resets your sprint and aim each time you use it, this makes spirit sceptre the best dungeons clearing weapon if you can one shot all the mobs. It is not better against minibosses, though.
 * Bats spawned by the item ability are buffed by the Bat Person Talisman, Ring, and Artifact.
 * One notable use of the Spirit Sceptre is spinning around while firing, in order to form a mass of bats and targeting them at enemies when required. This deals a burst of damage which can take down high-health enemies quickly.
 * The Spirit Sceptre resembles the Bat Scepter from Terraria. Both shoot Bats that drain mana to use. However, the Bat Sceptre automatically homes in to enemies, unlike the Spirit Sceptre.
