Space Gun



The Space Gun is a magic weapon which autofires quick green-colored lasers. Its projectile velocity is as fast as the Megashark. Each laser can hit up to three enemies, and emits moderate light as it moves.

If a full set of Meteor armor is equipped, the Space Gun costs no mana.

It is crafted by combining 20 Meteorite Bars (60 Meteorite) at an Anvil. A full set of Meteor armor and the Space Gun cost a total of 65 Meteorite Bars to craft (195 Meteorite).

Tips

 * The Space Gun can pierce two enemies at a time, which makes it quite useful in the pre-Hardmode Dungeon, because of the large quantity of grouped enemies found there.
 * Its usefulness soon diminishes after reaching Hardmode, as most enemies are too tough to the extent it becomes ineffective.
 * The Furious, Taboo, Intense, Ignorant, and Inept modifiers will not have any negative effects on mana while the set bonus of Meteor armor is in effect.
 * The Space Gun is highly useful for defeating the Wall of Flesh as the lasers can penetrate through The Hungry and have a much better chance at hitting the eyes or mouth. This, paired with Meteor armor, can be one of the easiest ways to defeat it.
 * With a full set of Meteor Armor, the Space Gun can be used as a decent weapon against Skeletron due to its good damage, attack rate, and its piercing abilities. This allows it to deal damage to both the hands and possibly the head simultaneously.
 * With Meteor Armor, the Space Gun does not cost any mana. This can be utilized to buy time for mana to regenerate.
 * The console version can sometimes glitch and keep the gun locked. All you need to do is get the guide near an anvil and speak to him about crafting, you can craft any item in the game from his menu so long as you're near the right crafting station and have the required materials.
