Blackhole Cannon use animation. Note the singularity drawing in the Wraiths and Undead Vikings to damage them.

The Blackhole Cannon is a craftable Hardmode magic gun that fires a projectile which creates a singularity on impact with an enemy, block, or cursor position. The singularity sucks enemies towards its center while dealing constant damage, and lasts for 5 seconds. Only one singularity can exist at a time; any new ones created will override the previous one.

Notes

• It has a similar effect to other magic weapons like the Adamantite Staff, or summon weapons like the Void Lance, but exists independently of them, thereby allowing all of the aforementioned weapons to function at the same time.
