Attacking with the Super Star Shooter.

The Super Star Shooter is a Hardmode ranged weapon that uses Fallen Stars for ammunition and is a direct upgrade to the Star Cannon. The stars shot from the weapon summon an extra projectile upon contact with an enemy, hitting them again, similarly to the Influx Waver.

Its best modifier is Unreal.

Notes

• The Star Slash projectile only inflicts 75% of the weapon's base damage.
• 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  PC 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.
• The Super Star Shooter's crowd control can render it useful until defeating Golem.
• Just like the Star Cannon, this weapon is useful against The Destroyer, but one of the other Mechanical bosses has to be defeated first to obtain the required Hallowed Bars.

Trivia

• The tooltip is a reference to the American television series Pinky and the Brain and Animaniacs.
