The Golem Fist attacking Target Dummies.

The Golem Fist is a Hardmode flail that has a 1/7 (14.29%) chance of being dropped by Golem. When used, it fires a large, high-velocity fist attached to a chain that retracts on impact with enemies or blocks.

Its best modifier is Godly or Demonic. Both modifiers increase the average damage output by the same amount. However, Ruthless might be preferred if the player already has very high critical strike chance.

Notes

• The Golem Fist has a maximum range of 31 tiles.^[1]

Trivia

• It has one of the highest listed knockback values of all weapons, beaten only by the Slap Hand and the Hallowed/Shadow Jousting Lance. Other weapons have the potential to inflict more knockback, however; see Knockback § Weapons inflicting the most knockback.
