Stealth Strike Explosion

Supernova in use.

The Supernova is a craftable post-Moon Lord rogue bomb.

When used, it throws a smart bomb that travels a short distance before quickly homing in on the nearest enemy, or returning to the player if no target is found. On hit, the bomb charges up an explosion while pulling in enemies and sticking to bosses. The explosion's first hit does 100% base damage and decreases by 5% for every hit onward.

Performing a stealth strike will cause the bomb to instead collapse into an energy field, rapidly dealing damage before causing a massive, screenwide explosion that visually shakes the screen. The bomb and explosion deal 70% of the weapon's base damage, but the explosion's damage does not decrease on multiple hits.

Its best modifier is Flawless.
