Musket

The Musket is one of the earliest obtainable Gun in the game. It fires bullets at an extremely slow rate. It is fairly potent compared to a Wooden Bow, as it does 25 base damage, plus the damage from the particular bullet fired. This weapon can be continuously fired, contrary to popular belief.

Muskets are often found in Shadow Orbs, along with a number of Musket Balls, usually an amount between 25 and 50. A musket with ammo will always drop from the first Shadow Orb broken on a world.

The Musket's high damage early in the game, along with its slow fire rate, help to conserve ammo, and it can be used to effectively kill the various eaters in the Corruption. Its best modifier is Unreal.

The newer sprite now resembles a musket with a longer stock and shorter barrel.

Trivia

 * The Sniper Rifle can be thought of as the long awaited upgrade to the Musket.
