Use

The Claret Cannon is a craftable post-Moon Lord classless weapon. It fires a small claret round that explodes into 20 small floating blood orbs upon hitting an enemy. When collected by the player, each orb reduces the duration of the Potion Sickness debuff by 0.33 seconds. If the player is not afflicted by Potion Sickness, the orbs increase the player's natural health regeneration. The Claret Cannon can only be fired once every 10 seconds, with its cooldown indicated by a small bar underneath its sprite in the hotbar.

The Claret Cannon cannot be reforged, and therefore cannot have modifiers.
