Photoviscerator Holdout

The Photoviscerator's two modes in use.

The Photoviscerator is a craftable post-Moon Lord flamethrower. It uses Gel for ammunition, with a 95% chance to not consume ammo.

When used with its primary fire (Left Click), it fires a solid light beam which pierces infinitely and rapidly hits struck enemies, along with periodic pairs of homing exo flares that explode on impact. When used with its secondary fire (Right Click), it fires homing exo flares that stick onto hit targets, constantly dealing 70% of the weapon's damage. Exo flares pierce four times, can bounce on tiles, and dissipate after 7 seconds. All of its attacks inflict the Miracle Blight debuff.

Its best modifier is Unreal.
