There are several different weapon types that you can wield inTerraria, ranging from simple swords to powerful summoning staves. One weapon type that you can become a master of is the whip. These weapons aim forward while causing minions to attack the enemy you strike last.
Out of the whips available, you may get your hands on the elusive Morning Star whip. This whip functions like a normal one but has some slight upgrades that can come in handy while battling enemies. Here, we are going to go over how you’re able to get your own Morning Star whip.

Where Does The Morning Star Whip Drop From?
The Morning Star whip isan enemy drop,meaning that you can’t craft it. Instead, it will drop from certain enemiesfound in the Dungeononce your world hastransitioned to Hardmode and after Plantera has been defeated.The whip has a0.5 percent to drop from each specified enemy on Classic mode.

Overall, we suggestgoing through the Dungeon as normal;as you explore, you will pass through areas with these wall types.

What Is The Post-Plantera Hardmode Dungeon?
The post-Plantera Hardmode Dungeon is a mouthful, but essentially, this means that you need todefeat theWall of FleshandPlanterabefore these enemies appear and drop the Morning Star whip.
The Wall of Flesh is a boss that lies at the bottom of the world; once defeated, the world will enter Hardmode. After doing this, you will still need to defeat Plantera. Doing so will bring up the following message.

With both bosses slain, you can nowhead into the Dungeon and find these enemies.It’s important to note that the Dungeon is dangerous. Before setting out, be sure to have plenty of healing items, as well as strong weapons and armor. Additionally, we suggest bringing astack of basic blocksto make scaffolding (and defensive walls) when needed.
