Explosion

The Spyker's spikes random spread and explosions.

The Spyker is a craftable post-Moon Lord gun that is a direct upgrade to the Needler. When used with Musket Balls, bullets are converted into spikes which stick to enemies and tiles and explode into more spikes, which also have a delayed explosion and inflict the Acid Venom debuff.

Its best modifier is Unreal.

Notes

• Despite having the Stynger in its recipe (which uses special Stynger Bolts as ammo), the Spyker uses standard bullets as ammo.

Tips

• The high amount of projectiles the Spyker fires makes it very effective as a crowd-controlling weapon.
