Unobtainable Object


Tesla Spike is a Miniknog trap found in the Miniknog Stronghold. It deals damage to players when touched, but does not damage monsters. It creates an electrical current that will connect to adjacent spikes and makes an electrical buzzing sound.

Attempting to mine a tesla spike will cause it to break. As a result, it cannot be obtained through normal gameplay.
