The Nova Rifle is a craftable Hardmode gun. The weapon has a slow firing speed, but a nearly unmatched base damage. Additionally, holding the weapon will automatically set you into a lesser stealth mode, making enemies less likely to target you and increasing knockback slightly as well as making you slightly transparent.

Its best modifier is Unreal.

Notes

  • This weapon can be considered a side-grade to both the Sniper Rifle and the DMR, having a slower speed but much higher base damage.
  • If the Show Donator Item Color configuration option is disabled, the Nova Rifle will have a rarity of Rarity Level: 8 instead of the standard Rarity level: Donator.

Trivia

  • This weapon is a reference to Nova, from the StarCraft series.
    • The gun's ability to cloak is identical to the character's ability.
