The Plasma Rifle is a craftable post-Moon Lord magic gun. When used with its primary fire (left-click), it fires an explosive plasma blast that creates toxic clouds upon contact with an enemy or a tile. When used with its secondary fire (right-click), it rapidly fires plasma-like bullets which do not explode but deal double damage.

Its best modifier is Mythical.
