Launchers

Launchers are Hardmode, post-Plantera ranged weapons that either use rockets as ammunition, or their projectiles explode on impact and are not sorted into any other category. All launchers benefit from the damage bonus of the Shroomite Helmet, as well as other ranged bonuses.

Behavior

Some launchers give unusual behavior to rockets, including transforming them into different kinds of projectiles with different behaviors. This table lists how some of the basic properties of the rocket variants are affected by the different rocket-using launchers. Additional info on how and why some of these changes happen can be found on the launchers' individual pages.
