Star Cannon

The Star Cannon is an upgraded version of the Minishark that shoots Fallen Stars. It used to be able to shoot Fallen Stars at a very fast speed, however as of the 1.0.5 update, the Star Cannon's speed has been greatly reduced and can no longer rapid fire Fallen Stars.

Finding ammunition for it isn't too hard if the player regularly picks up Fallen Stars even after maxing their mana and doesn't use many Mana Potions, or builds walkways in the sky to farm them efficiently, although its high rate of fire can easily consume entire stacks of ammunition in a single fight.

The Star Cannon can launch a Fallen Star 3150 blocks, or 6300 feet. The time period a star can survive is exactly 1 minute long so this means that the shooting star can travel at 63 blocks/105 feet per second. After the star reaches this point it will destroy itself leaving behind a firework animation, a very similar animation as what the Magic Missile does just spreads slightly more outward.
