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.
Unlike the Star Cannon, this weapon is able to knock enemies back and land critical hits.
On the Mobile version, this weapon is purchasable from the Traveling Merchant for 50 after defeating a mechanical boss.
Its best modifier is Unreal.

Notes[edit | edit source]
- The stars fired from this gun can go through the upper side of platforms, unlike the Star Cannon.
Tips[edit | edit source]
- 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.
- This weapon can be easily used in Journey mode, as Fallen Stars can be duplicated.
- Items that enhance ammo reservation such as the Ammo Box will help, as Fallen Stars can be hard to gather in large amounts.
- The Super Star Shooter can be used to kill all the Mechanical bosses and can remain useful until Golem.
- Both the Star Cannon and Super Star Shooter can pierce enemies, so it can be useful for crowd control.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- The tooltip is a reference to the "Pinky and the Brain" and "Animaniacs" TV shows.
