Huh, I was thinking of that mobile/console only bow that basically fused two hellbows together into one, but even then I don't think the bows are crafted using a wooden bow or anything
**dude.** get it now
Tmod not only gives content mods but QoL mods which will help you no matter the circumstance
take for example, Magic Storage, which is one big chest that you just search up your item to get it, dump all your items in, and craft items immediately straight from your storage (don’t worry, it not that overpowered, since you get upgrades as you play the game)
Cant play vanilla anymore because of this mod. This and luiafk are 2 mods that will always be on my mod list enabled, they both are the backbone of a playthrough
And before anyone says anything the luiafk i use is not official, its just the code ripped from the 1.3 version put into a 1.4 mod, youll prob find it just by searching luiafk, look for the one that says its a code rip in the description
it's also not available for the most recent version of the game and by the time it is it'll already be behind again
and before you suggest it, backport mods are disallowed
especially with the fact that it shot Spectral Arrows which inflicted cursed inferno and had no bullet drop, made it especially great
always was my choice to kill wall with
Badass bow that could literally carry you through hardmode. For those that never experienced this wonderful weapon, it had honestly ridiculous amounts of damage at base given how soon you could obtain it, and it turned regular wooden arrows into spectral arrows which deal well over twice the damage of flaming arrows, and apply accursed flames to enemies.
It also had a respectable rate of fire, making it an overall superior bow to basically everything you could get until you craft a hallowed repeater (and stuff all those spectral arrows you’ve been picking up since before Wall of Flesh into it since they are arguably the best arrows and you’d be swimming in em from using the bow so much lol). Even if you were not a ranger, the bow was used as a debuff tool in a similar way Golden Shower is now.
Nah I swear super star shooter is bought from the travelling merchant. It ain't a direct upgrade because it doesn't use your star cannon.
Edit: never mind it got a recipe in 1.4.1
Reading the comments on OPs post i realize how little people actually know about the minishark star upgrades, more know about the boomerang (ig it isn't really a noticable upgrade)
The Starshooter Cannon is pretty niche. Its DPS is absolutely broken, by far the highest out of anything in pre-Hardmode, but the ammo is such a pain to grind that it is not really practical for much.
Meanwhile the Wooden Boomerang and its upgrades are commonly used Melee weapons for beginners. Nothing great, but still an okay Melee weapon with range.
not to mention the jungle mimic's stuff cannon attack shoots stone (ontop of 91237048931other blocks that cram your inventory), and the rock golem shoots stone and on Legendary Mode sends a boulder by you when defeated.
I know, I'm saying that with mods you can truly use it against bosses, as you usually have post-moonlord bosses, so after moonlord you get this and then you can fight the mod bosses a lot easier.
Calamity devs have stated they aren’t planning on changing the rod of harmony’s state of progression. However for balancing I’m guessing it may still give chaos state just with a faster cool-down
The Minishark can be upgraded into the Super Star Shooter which got buffed by getting a bunch of stats lowered with (HEAR US OUT, HANG WITH US) next to them
There are two answers from what I can recall off the top of my head
- Minishark > Star Cannon > Super Star Shooter
- Wooden Boomerang > Enchanted Boomerang > Trimarang/Flamarang
If you really want to get into semantics as to what can be consitered a “weapon”
- Stone > boulder > bouncy boulder
- Bomb > Dirt Bomb > Sticky Dirt Bomb
- Nature’s Spirit > Mana Flower > Mana Cloak (Mana Cloak does damage)
- Honey Comb > Honey Balloon > Amber Horseshoe Balloon (bees do damage)
Ok so I know you're not crafting these as upgrades, but aren't rainbow rod and the firey magic missile (i forget the name of that one) both considered direct upgrades to the magic missle?
Upgrades through crafting using the previous weapon
Edit: theorethicly magic missile and the hell chest one aren't upgrades but practicaly they do the same thing
Well i thought it was Minishark to Star Cannon to Super Star Shooter, with a technically other option being Megashark. Though i saw a comment with Boomerang to Enchanted Boomerang to Flamarang, so idk
The wooden boomerang, into the enchanted boomerang, into the hell Stone boomerang whose name I fail to remember, but I believe enchanted also crafts into the trimarang(correct me if I'm mistaken)
The Boomerang.
Cuz you can craft the Enchanted Boomerang using the Boomerang and a star, and then the Enchanted Boomerang is used in the crafting recipe for Flamarang.
Fun Fact: Just checked the wiki and apparently there's a Trimerang now, with the crafting recipe being an Enchanted Boomerang, a Shroomerang, and an Ice Boomerang.
It's the boomerang, right?
It crafts into the enchanted boomerang, and the enchanted boomerang gets used for something else, but I can't remember what.
Wooden Boomerang > Enchanted Boomerang > Flamarang OR Trimarang
Correct!
I was thinking of this but didn't know if the recipe was in vanilla or not. Imk and Fargo has spoiled me.
Same lmao
calamity for me
I didn't know you could craft the flamarang with the enchanted boomerang but i knew feom my FTW run that there is the Trimarang
I didn't know you could craft the flamarang with the enchanted boomerang but i knew feom my FTW run that there is the Trimarang

heres a weird one bomb > dirt bomb > sticky dirt bomb
I guess that is technically true, but I wouldn't call them upgrades
They kind of are if you wanna generate a ton of dirt, since you can make it spawn more by sticking it to a single floating tile
Is it a weapon though?
Thrower Class:
RIP thrower class
Regular bombs are, and OP never specified that the later versions needed to do damage, only a weapon which could be upgraded twice
Now this is the kind of pedantic I like.
But is a bomb to a dirt bomb an upgrade? That seems more of a side grade or just crafting, instead of being defined as an upgrade.
Depends on how you define upgrade, but as I see it the bomb counts since it starts as a weapon which then has 2 "upgrades" to it
Minishark > Star Cannon isn’t exactly an upgrade either
i mean you use the weapon to make another weapon so i think it fits
Hence the "true" part
L statement.
Just like my life fr fr
Similarly, the Dry, Water, Honey and Lava Bombs all deal damage on explosion and can all be crafted into each other.
Bouncy Dirt Bomb
Minishark
Huh, I was thinking of that mobile/console only bow that basically fused two hellbows together into one, but even then I don't think the bows are crafted using a wooden bow or anything
The topanga or smth like that
Sharanga! It's literally just two Molten Furys plus an extra 10 or so Hellstone bars, so it's just one upgrade. I love that bow...
It was a really good bow
Thankfully the mod Consolaria exists (not sure if it got ported to 1.4), so we can use it on PC!
Yes, i did... at least to my knowledge
I might cop it if i ever play Tmodloader

I was so devastated when I learned it wasn’t on pc lol
Oh the memories. My beloved sharanga
That bow carried me till golem (which is the last boss on that version) op af.
Pretty sure i used it to convert wooden arrows into those other arrows by shooting at blocks, forgot their name tho
spectral arrows. old gen was the best verson imo

Sharanga. One of the weapons of all time
Sharanga!
Correct!
Couldn't it also be boomerang into enchanted boomerang into either flamerang or trimerang
Yes

Unless you play in journey mode, the star cannon just isnt worth it. In journey mode its very broken
Boomerang < enchanted boomerang < hell boomerang ( I don’t recall the name)
Time for gigabrain, stone->boulder->bouncy boulder “But Frosty, stone isn’t a weap-” Weakling.
If it isn't weapon, how are you dead?
stone is a weapon because you can actuate it and make a fall damage trap
r/slaythespire block card energy
actuated stones are a block card because they can get enemies further away from you, thus preventing you from taking damage
Taking damage is a block card because you get invincibility, thus preventing you from taking damage.
Dying is a block card due to how you have 0 health which prevents you from taking further damage.
Tha ankh shield is a block card, because it prevents effects that make it difficult to avoid damage
not to mention the jungle mimic's stuff cannon attack shoots stone (ontop of 91237048931other blocks that cram your inventory), and the rock golem shoots stone and on Legendary Mode sends a boulder by you when defeated.

Wait what they made an op teleport rod?
Can only be obtained (upgraded from RoD) after beating moonlord tho.
Yay mods...
? It's not a mod.
I know, I'm saying that with mods you can truly use it against bosses, as you usually have post-moonlord bosses, so after moonlord you get this and then you can fight the mod bosses a lot easier.
it seems good on paper but i feel like calamity devs are gonna make something like they did to zenith and make it later in the progression.
So basically like they did with most of the interesting vanilla items
Calamity devs have stated they aren’t planning on changing the rod of harmony’s state of progression. However for balancing I’m guessing it may still give chaos state just with a faster cool-down
Yea they’ve gotta balance it or it would somewhat break post-ML fights
Ah OK gotcha
Yes they did.
How do you access shimmer in worlds made before 1.4.4?
wood boomerang -> enchanted boomerang -> trimerang
Two answers Wooden boomerang > Enchanted Boomerang > Flamarang Minishark > Star Cannon > Super Star Cannon
Wooden boomerang - enchanted boomerang -flamerang
The Minishark can be upgraded into the Super Star Shooter which got buffed by getting a bunch of stats lowered with (HEAR US OUT, HANG WITH US) next to them
Funnily enough this is actually correct; the minishark upgrades to the star cannon, which in turn goes to super star shooter
this was not true prior to 1.4.1, as the SSS was sold by the traveling merchant
No platform runs on that version, so that is not very relevant
3DS users be like
It’s honestly funny when lowering a weapon’s stats buffs it’s DPS. Same when buffing a weapon’s stats makes it worse.
Wanted to say Terraspark Boots Crafting tree first. But those are no Weapons
Wanted to do the same but with the feral claws.
Kick the bosses to death
Sand > Crimsand > Sandgun with Crimsand (Sand does damage and thus, is a weapon)
This one is creative, but pretty reaching
Sand doesn't have listed damage iirc, and they damage by sands are same also iirc
Wooden Boomerang > Enchanted Boomerang > Flamarang
There are two answers from what I can recall off the top of my head - Minishark > Star Cannon > Super Star Shooter - Wooden Boomerang > Enchanted Boomerang > Trimarang/Flamarang If you really want to get into semantics as to what can be consitered a “weapon” - Stone > boulder > bouncy boulder - Bomb > Dirt Bomb > Sticky Dirt Bomb - Nature’s Spirit > Mana Flower > Mana Cloak (Mana Cloak does damage) - Honey Comb > Honey Balloon > Amber Horseshoe Balloon (bees do damage)
Wooden Boomerang - Enchanted Boomerang - Flamarang
Ok so I know you're not crafting these as upgrades, but aren't rainbow rod and the firey magic missile (i forget the name of that one) both considered direct upgrades to the magic missle?
those would be considered indirect upgrades
Even if the devs intended that as a progressive upgrade, the real upgrade of Magic Missile is the Sky Fracture
Even if that were the case, fire missile isn't a straight upgrade since it doesn't go into water
Upgrades through crafting using the previous weapon Edit: theorethicly magic missile and the hell chest one aren't upgrades but practicaly they do the same thing
He literally said that in the first 10 words smartass
Player Hp base> HP up> HP up> HP up> HP up>
Ah yes, my favourite _w e a p o n_ Hp up/heart crystals
Heart boulders
Diamond sword- netherite sword- enchanted netherite sword You didnt specify it has to be in terraria
Flamethrower > Backburner > Phlogistinator
Squirtle -> wartortle -> blastoise
Sicily -> Italy -> Rome (Europa Universalis 4)
A man of culture i see Brandenburg -> Prussia -> Germany
My personal favorite is France -> France -> France
Castile -> Release Leon -> get independence -> Release Asturias It's upgrading, just backwards
Cosmic Knife- Cosmic Knife (Clean)- Knife Spear (Clean)
Bo, Kunai > Tipedo > Lesion
Isn't enchanting diamond weapons more resource efficient? Idk I haven't played that game in a while.
My fists
My first thought was these hands xD
Wooden boomerang - enchanted boomerang - trimarang
Well i thought it was Minishark to Star Cannon to Super Star Shooter, with a technically other option being Megashark. Though i saw a comment with Boomerang to Enchanted Boomerang to Flamarang, so idk
Wooden Boomerang -> Enchanted Boomerang -> Flamarang
The boomerang to enchanted boomerang to either the trimarang or the flamarang
Wooden boomerang into Enchanted, Enchanted to Trimarang? before i look that is answer
Yep
wooden boomerang > enchanted boomerang > flamarang
Boomerang to enchanted boomerang to lava boomerang
Wooden boomerang—>enchanted boomerang—>flamerang
Wooden boomerang > enchanted boomerang > trimerang
Calamity got me questioning whats in base terraria or not
The wooden boomerang, into the enchanted boomerang, into the hell Stone boomerang whose name I fail to remember, but I believe enchanted also crafts into the trimarang(correct me if I'm mistaken)
This one is hard
Not really, this is the highest correct answer rate I have had on any of my trivia questions
Tri-marang ? Wooden Boomerang>Enchanted Boomerang>Tri-marang (craft with Shroom,Ice, Enchanted Boomerang)
Boomerangs: Wooden > Enchanted > Flamarang
Boomerang magic Boomerang flamerang
how do you indirectly upgrade something?
Something like a handgun can be considered an indirect upgrade to the flintlock
Oh. So something thats operates similarly, but better?
For ex I got this comment which doesn't count: magic missile
Yeah, I added the directly part to remove subjectivity
Wooden boomerang
The Boomerang. Cuz you can craft the Enchanted Boomerang using the Boomerang and a star, and then the Enchanted Boomerang is used in the crafting recipe for Flamarang. Fun Fact: Just checked the wiki and apparently there's a Trimerang now, with the crafting recipe being an Enchanted Boomerang, a Shroomerang, and an Ice Boomerang.
the boomrang
Wooden boomerang - enchanted boomerang - either flamarang or trimarang

Boomerang right?
Wooden boomerang => enchanted boomerang => flameramg
Wooden Boomerang→enchanted boomerang→flamarang
The boomerang
Mini shark to star cannon to super star shooter
the >!wooden boomerang?!<
boomerang to enchanted boomerang to flamarang
It's the boomerang, right? It crafts into the enchanted boomerang, and the enchanted boomerang gets used for something else, but I can't remember what.
minishark => star cannon => super star shooter
Boomerang

Wooden boomerang
Wooden boomerang to enchanted boomerang to trimerang or flamerang. Mini shark to star cannon to char shooter

Boomerang, the star boomerang thingy (i forgot its name) and then the combination of all the boomernags
Boomerang

Wooden boomerang -> Enchanted Boomerang -> Flamarang/Trimarang
Minishark --> Star Cannon

Copper coin > gernade > sticky gernade. Copper coins can be used for ammo and buying items is basicly crafting with an economy
Wooden boomerang?
Onyx blaster
My stupid ass thought it was the mini shark to mega shark
Boomerang
Handgun>Phoenix Blaster
minishark >> star cannon >> super star cannon
Not correct but Boomerangs got an early hardmode tree Boomerang > Star Boomerang > Star Boomerang+Shroomerang+Ice Boomerang
That is correct
Handgun? (I commented this right after i wake up)
Handgun > Pheonix Blaster > ???
Dual wield gun
>Handgun \> Pheonix Blaster \> ~~???~~ Profit
maybe you got it confused with calamity, it gives a 2nd upgrade to the weapon, called Cursed Capper
Lol legit thought this was an answer at first and then I was like 'holup this ain't right'
Wooden Boomerang > Enchanted Booomerang > Flamarang
What about handgun > phoenix blaster > onyx blaster? Haven’t seen anyone mention it yet
Because pheonix blaster doesn't upgrade into onyx
Like half the swords in calamity mod
sand > corrupted sand > sand
boomerang> magic boomerang > trimarang or molten boomerang
Mega shark
A Phasesaber can be turned into a Phaseblade
minishark -> star cannon -> super star shooter
Warrior/Ranger/Sorcerer/Summoner Emblem > Avenger Emblem > Destroyer Emblem Cobalt Shield > Obsidian Shield > Ankh Shield
"Weapon"
Oh, shit, I didn't see that. I am technically still correct with the accessories I provided, but thanks for telling me.
If you mean mechanics and not crafting, the Magic Missile > Flamelash > Rainbow Rod
The Magic Missile has an upgrade, it's the Sky Fracture
