The Hit Scanner is a gun dropped by the Pre-Hardmode boss The Star Scouter. It causes any Musket Balls or Silver Bullets it fires to travel nearly instantaneously in an almost beam-like fashion.

Its best modifier is Unreal.

Notes[ | ]

  • It has a base critical chance of 10%, making it one of the few weapons that has a base critical chance higher than the standard 4%.

Trivia[ | ]

  • This item is based off of the term "hitscan", where bullets' paths in FPS games are calculated instantly rather than being a projectile.
