The Fireworks Cannon is one of the twelve Cannons that Pit can equip in Kid Icarus: Uprising. It charges quickly and has strong homing ability, though its projectile range and melee attacks are rather low. It is shaped like a wooden barrel.
Idol description
A cannon inspired by the tubes used to launch fireworks. It features a strong homing ability, fast charge, wide explosions, and the ability to knock enemies into the air. On the downside, its attacks lack in power and range.
Base statistics
Notice:
Weapon data is for weapons with zero ranged and melee stars with no mods to them. Distance refers to the maximum range a shot can travel, measured with non-homing shots. Damage (near) refers to the damage done when the target is as close as possible. Damage (far) refers to the damage given at maximum range. The symbol "—" means the corresponding stat is not applicable to that specific attack.
