Stellar Tune

You are not really leading targets with this. The stars pick something inside a very large box around you and fly toward where the game guesses it will be a third of a second later. That guess is locked in at the moment of firing and never corrected, so anything that turns hard or changes speed mid flight will be missed cleanly. Against a large or committed target almost every star lands. If nothing valid is in range they head for your cursor instead, though they will not travel past a certain distance to get there.

Flight time is fixed rather than distance based. The stars adjust their own speed so a shot across the arena and a shot at your feet arrive in about the same moment, which means the weapon feels identical at every range even though the projectiles are moving at wildly different speeds.

Clicking repeatedly plays more notes and puts fewer stars in the air. The weapon wants the button held. This catches a lot of people out, because the audio rewards mashing while the damage very much does not.

The stars travel through terrain happily, but if your line to the point where one lands is obstructed, that hit is cut down noticeably. Shooting from behind cover works and it is not free. If your arena puts a solid floor between you and the boss, your real output will sit under what the page says. The explosion on impact covers a decent square, and the stars do not eat each other's invincibility frames, so overlapping hits all count.

Its natural critical chance is far above what a magic weapon normally gets, which is worth remembering beyond this weapon itself. Projectiles read critical chance off whatever you are currently holding, so keeping this in your hand while a Clinger Staff wall burns is a real damage gain. Mythical is the modifier to look for.

Cursor distance picks which guitar chord plays, six of them climbing as you reach further out, with the current one shown under your cursor while the weapon is held. Purely decorative, but it does mean you can play a scale by moving your mouse, which is why one tends to survive in a chest long after it stops seeing combat. The weapon is modeled on the Empress of Light's rainbow attack, and the name is likely a nod to a guitar tone-control brand.
