The Starcharger is a craftable Pre-Hardmode bow. While in use, a quiver appears behind the player's back which changes color based on the arrow type the bow is firing. When used with its ◀ Left click, it fires a volley of 3 fast traveling but weak positive arrows. Positive arrows are not affected by gravity and stick to enemies or tiles upon contact, lasting for a short amount of time before disappearing. Only 3 positive arrows can exist at a time.
When used with its ▶ Right click, it fires a slow traveling but powerful negative arrow that is slightly affected by gravity and shatters on collision with an enemy or tile. Negative arrows home towards the nearest positive arrow and upon contact will cause both arrows to explode into a star-shaped explosion. The explosion deals damage in a small radius and sends out 2 lightning bolts towards the nearest enemy to deal additional damage.
Its best modifier is Unreal.
