The Obliterator is a post-Moon Lord yoyo that is dropped by The Devourer of Gods. While deployed, it rapidly fires nebular lasers towards enemies within 20 tiles. The nebula lasers do not pierce or pass through tiles, and they deal 50% of the weapon's damage. Both the yoyo and nebula lasers inflict the God Slayer Inferno debuff on hit. The yoyo ignores NPC immunity frames.

Its best modifier is Godly. It cannot get modifiers that affect size. Ruthless might be preferred if the player already has 100% critical strike chance.

Notes

• The lasers are five times more likely to fire at a boss versus other nearby non-boss enemies.

Trivia

• In the Get fixed boi seed, The Obliterator has its tooltip changed to "just a slight bit of dust spam on this weapon im afraid". While in use, it constantly spams rainbow dust outwards in a wheel formation, and plays background music.
  • The music that plays is the song Lonely Rolling Star from the game Katamari Damacy, a colorful game in which the player rolls up objects into a large ball. The version of the song that plays when The Obliterator is used is significantly distorted by high volume.
  • Hitting enemies with the yoyo will cause the music to speed up significantly and increase in pitch.
