Attacking with the Super Star Shooter.
The Super Star Shooter is a Hardmode ranged weapon that launches Fallen Stars and is a direct upgrade to the Star Cannon. The stars shot from the item summon an extra projectile upon contact with an enemy, hitting them again, similar to the Influx Waver.
Its best modifier is Unreal.

Notes[]
- Unlike the Star Cannon, the Super Star Shooter is able to knock enemies back.
- On
Mobile, it can additionally land critical hits and shoot through the upper side of platforms. Note that the Star Cannon can do both on the
Desktop version
Tips[]
- When grappled or standing next to a wall, the shots from this weapon will impact the wall when fired at certain angles. Avoid this by fighting in the open or using a multi-use grappling hook.
- Items that grant ammo conservation such as the Ammo Box will help, as Fallen Stars can be hard to gather in large amounts.
- In Journey Mode, Fallen Stars can be obtained easily by duplicating.
- The Super Star Shooter's crowd control can render it useful until defeating Golem.
Trivia[]
- The tooltip is a reference to the American television series Pinky and the Brain and Animaniacs.
