The Snowball Cannon firing.

The Snowball Cannon is a ranged weapon which uses Snowballs as ammunition. It can be found inside Ice Chests in the Ice biome.

Its best modifier is Unreal.

Notes

  • Snowballs make a small "boom" when landing.

Tips

  • Snowballs fired from the Snowball Cannon are greatly affected by gravity, so it is not recommended to be used against enemies at farther ranges.
  • This weapon is extremely useful in the early game due to its autofire ability, accessible ammo, and high combined damage and knockback of weapon and ammo.

Trivia

  • Despite the Snowball Cannon dealing ranged damage, the Snowballs that it fires deal throwing damage when used on their own.
