Clockwork Assault Rifle

The Clockwork Assault Rifle is a new weapon that was added in the 1.1 update. It shoots in three-round bursts, and has a rather high damage rate. It is a drop from the Wall of Flesh.

The actual appearance of the weapon shares similarities to that of a Steampunk art-style, which may also be a reference of it's name: Clockwork.

Even though the Clockwork Assault Rifle only deals a base damage of 20, it can be a very powerful weapon, and almost as strong as the Megashark. This is due to the fact that it fires in 3 round bursts and uses just one bullet, meaning that a player can hit 60 damage per bullet used, as opposed to the Megasharks average 52 damage per bullet (due to its 50% chance not to use ammunition).
