Star Cannon

Information
The Star Cannon is a very fast-firing weapon that shoots Fallen Stars, making it difficult to collect ammunition for. The gun does 75 damage per shot. If you fire the Star Cannon while the sun is up, it will still operate properly.

Made with: 1 minishark, 5 fallen stars, and 20 Meteorite Bar.

Trivia

 * The fired Fallen Stars were once retrievable, but due to balancing issues, they are no longer salvagable after fired. To balance the high speed and huge power for such a demanding weapon, the drop rate of stars have been increased immensely.
 * The Star Cannon is currently the weapon with the highest damage and damage per second, and it is often considered the best weapon in the game.



Tips

 * Since the Star Cannon does piercing damage, it proves itself to be an extremely effective weapon at taking out Eater of Worlds. As long as you shoot from the head through the rest of the body, you can do repetitive damage to his entire body, killing him extremely fast.


 * A good way to farm Fallen Stars for ammo is to make a new world, make a little tower, and make a giant flat skybridge. During night time stars will fall onto the bridge and, with Hermes' Boots and/or Necro Armor, you can get them quickly (Using the Grappling Hook to hook onto your walkway while walking can make you faster as well).
 * Due to its rarity in ammo a good alternate to this weapon is the Starfury, since it is commonly found on floating islands and it has a total damage of 60.
