Nebula Blaze



The Nebula Blaze is a Hardmode, post-Lunatic Cultist magic weapon which auto-fires pink, high-velocity projectiles that home in on enemies if they are nearby, with a 20% chance to randomly fire a larger, faster blue projectile that does three times the damage and a higher velocity, instead. This weapon fires inaccurately, akin to the Chain Gun and weapons like it - however, its projectiles are homing from a certain angle, similar to the Spectre Staff. When selected, this weapon appears as a pink glow covering the player's hand which leaves behind a pink particle trail as the player moves.

The Nebula Blaze does not deal any knockback.

Tips

 * Because of the quite high mana cost and fast use time, the Nebula Blaze consumes mana very rapidly. Be sure to have items that provide mana at the ready when using this item.
 * Because of this weapon's inaccuracy, it is best suited to combat in open spaces. While fighting enemies in narrow passageways, those in places like the Dungeon, the projectiles have a tendency to collide with the walls.
 * With sufficient boosts, it is possible to reach or even exceed 3000 critical damage.
 * This weapon is devastating in PvP at close range because of its high rate of fire and triple damage caused by the larger blue projectile, "Nebula Blaze Ex".
 * This has the highest base damage of any magic weapon.
 * The bolt can hit enemies through walls at certain angles, but the bolt is consumed upon collision.

Trivia

 * The Nebula Blaze appears to be a magic glove or gauntlet.
 * Its tooltip refers to the constellation of Orion.
 * Its tooltip may also be a reference to the quote "The power of the sun in the palm of my hand." from Sam Raimi's 2004 movie Spider-Man 2.
