Phantom Rod

The Phantom Rod is a Fishing Weapon dropped from Phantom Fishers.

This is the first "Fishing Weapon" introduced to the game and can be used as both a fishing rod and a weapon. This also means that it is capable of being enchanted with fishing rod enchantments as well as sword enchantments. The Phantom Rod can damage mobs from far away by left clicking while a mob is hooked, allowing players to continuously knock back enemies into a partial stun-lock without getting in range of melee mob attacks. The phantom rod is one of the 2 new weapons added in the 0.9.10 update, with the other weapon being the "Soul Whip".

This weapon pairs well with low Effective Health dungeon builds, as it can turn melee classes into ranged classes.

This weapon can be converted into a dungeon item and stared with undead essences, but will require catacombs 20 to use.

The Phantom Rod adds 125 and 200.
