Blowpipe

Carrying one changes what plants leave behind. Cut grass, flowers, clay pots and planter boxes and seeds start falling out of them, which means the weapon restocks as you walk around doing anything else. You will almost never run dry once you notice this.

It outranges the Wooden Boomerang by a wide margin and needs nothing you have to craft, so it covers the awkward stretch on a fresh character where you have found a chest weapon but no bow worth feeding. Shots arc on the way out, so distant targets need a little lead. The thing that catches people out is that the two kinds of seed are not the same: what this fires cannot be planted, and what you plant cannot be loaded into it.
