Talk:Onyx Blaster

Addition of "This weapon can be used to defeat any Mechanical Bosses." tip
Is it actually necessary? There is a ton of other hardmode pre-boss weapons that can be easily crafted/farmed to kill any Mechanical Boss, even in Expert mode. This note is kinda inconsistent with any other weapon page actually. Or shall we start adding it everywhere? It's essence belongs to some walkthrough/game-progression guide.

The addition of the "This weapon is affected by a bug not allowing console players to craft the weapon, yet it can still be obtained in an all items world" Note.
This doesn't make sense. It is craftable on ps4 Pooflef (talk) 07:55, 24 April 2020 (UTC)

Visual inspiration
I think the weapon might have been inspired by (or something else that was also inspired by) Nerf brand Zombie Strike Crossfire bow with the actual bow part removed: https://imgur.com/cUqPMnA The guard around the grip and that bump at the bottom of the barrel are very similar, and the fact that the blaster has 4 barrels (although cant shoot them all at the same time) make it look pretty much like a recoloured version.
