This page is about the magic weapon. For the event, see here.

Thunderstorm is a post-Moon Lord magic gun that is dropped by the Storm Weaver. When used, it will fire a stream of green plasma bullets that explode upon contact with blocks or enemies. Each explosion causes five smaller plasma bullets to rain down within the vicinity of the explosion. Each smaller plasma bullet will do full damage and will pass through blocks for a few seconds. A decorative green circle is also created by the explosion.

Its best modifier is Mythical.

Trivia

• This weapon is a reference to the Storm sniper rifle from Borderlands 2.
