The Anomaly's Nanogun is a craftable post-Moon Lord ranged weapon. When used with its primary fire (left-click), a reticle appears at the cannon's muzzle for 0.67 seconds. Afterwards, it fires a red plasma beam towards the cursor over five-round bursts that pierces infinitely but loses 50% damage per hit.
When used with its secondary fire (right-click), it has an effective base damage of 925, base use time of 59, and base knockback of 3.6. It causes the player to recoil in the opposite direction the weapon is fired towards, and simultaneously fires three bombs with varying speeds towards the cursor that deal 77% of the weapon's damage and 500% knockback. Each bomb creates a massive explosion on impact which constantly damages enemies within radius. The explosions deal 5.7% of the weapon's damage and lose 40% damage per hit.
On primary fire, The weapon consumes 0.3 units of charge per use and has a maximum charge of 250. As such, the weapon can be used continuously from full charge 833 times, or for 32 minutes and 24 seconds. On secondary fire, it consumes 0.15 units of charge per use. As such, the secondary fire can be used continuously from full charge 666 times, or for 11 minutes and 17 seconds.
Its best modifier is Unreal.
