Phoenix Blaster

The Phoenix Blaster is an upgraded version of the Handgun that can shoot any form of bullet with the exact same damage as the Musket. It has a base power of 23, yielding 30 damage with Musket Balls and 32 damage with either Meteor Shot or Silver Bullets. It deals 7 less damage than the Molten Fury with Hellfire Arrows, but the combination of very fast attack and projectile speeds along with easily acquired ammunition makes it a far more lethal weapon. It was, arguably, the strongest gun in the game compared to the Minishark. However, it got a damage nerf, making players consider the two and since the Wall of Flesh update (1.1) the Megashark easily out-damages the Phoenix Blaster in DPS.

Trivia
Its name may be a reference to the popular "Desert Eagle" pistol.
