The Chicken Cannon in action. Note its secondary fire detonating the rocket in midair.

The Chicken Cannon is a post-Moon Lord launcher that is dropped by Yharon, Dragon of Rebirth. When used with its primary fire (Left Click), it rapidly fires chicken rockets that bounce straight up when hitting the ground before causing a gigantic explosion after a short delay, inflicting the Dragonfire debuff. The explosion lingers for a few seconds and ignores immunity frames. When used with its secondary fire (Right Click), it instantly detonates rockets in midair.

Its best modifier is Unreal.

Notes

• XM-05 Thanatos takes only 50% damage from the Chicken Cannon's explosions.
• Supreme Witch, Calamitas' Supreme Soul Seekers take only 15% damage from the Chicken Cannon's explosions.
