Star

The Event Horizon's homing and orbiting stars. Notice how the stars spawn black holes when contacting the Target Dummy and the Super Dummy.

The Event Horizon is a craftable post-Moon Lord spell tome and the upgrade to the Star Shower, Nuclear Fury, and Relic of Ruin. When used, it releases a ring of stars around the player that orbit their location at the time it was used and home in on nearby enemies. If no enemies are nearby, the stars expand outwards, go back inwards again and finally drift off. Upon contact with enemies, they transform into stationary, lingering black holes which pierce infinitely, rapidly dealing 50% of the weapon's base damage before disappearing after 1.5 seconds.

Its best modifier is Mythical.

Trivia

• The event horizon is the area around a black hole where gravity becomes so strong that it is impossible for any matter or energy to escape, including light. This is referenced in the item's tooltip.
• The weapon is a reference to the spell card, Black Magic "Event Horizon", used by the character Marisa Kirisame from the Touhou Project series.
