Notes

• Template:Mobile icon Sometimes the Phoenix Blaster can be found in chests in, or very close to, the Underworld or in the Dungeon (must open with Golden Key).

Tips

• The Phoenix Blaster is useful up to early- to mid-Hardmode, outclassing many early-Hardmode weapons.
• Though it lacks the Minishark's auto-fire, with reasonably rapid manual clicks the Phoenix Blaster generally eclipses the Minishark in damage rate.
• It is also a useful weapon for battling the Wall Of Flesh for the first time

Trivia

• The sprite is a molten version of the Handgun with an attachment below the front of the gun. The attachment seems to be a flashlight or laser sight, however this is purely aesthetic.
