- Not to be confused with Flurrystorm Cannon, a snow-themed ranged weapon.
The Firestorm Cannon is a craftable Pre-Hardmode ranged weapon that is a weaponized version of the Flare Gun. Like the Flare Gun, it uses Flares as ammunition.
The Firestorm Cannon has two firing modes, both of which have auto-use:
- Left click will fire a constant but inaccurate stream of piercing flares; sometimes firing two flares at once. These flares disappear very quickly after sticking to a tile.
- Right click fires an inaccurate spread of four or five flares. These flares do not pierce but last a bit longer when sticking to tiles. These flares deal 140% of the weapon's damage.
Its best modifier is Unreal.

Both attacks, left then right click.
