Galaxian Star
The Cosmic Shiv is a craftable post-Moon Lord shortsword that is the direct upgrade to the Elemental Shiv. When used, it releases homing cosmic orbs. Upon contacting an enemy, the orbs spawn 2 cosmic blades that each do 80% of the weapon's damage and cause 6 to 10 galaxy stars to rain down that do 50% of the weapon's damage. The cosmic orb spawns a small explosion on hit, dealing 150% of the weapon's damage. True melee hits, orbs, and blades inflict the God Slayer Inferno debuff.
Its best modifier is Legendary.

Trivia
- Its past damage value being 666 was a reference to the number of the beast.
