Seed Gun

The Seed Gun is a ranged weapon that fires seeds instead of conventional ammunition. It can be obtained by completing the Adventure Journal Challenges for the Deep Forest Caves, which also awards the Seed Pouch, and it is then sold by the Elder.

The weapon currently only supports crop seeds and flower seeds, and each seed type grants different effects when fired. While the Seed Gun is in your inventory, hovering over seeds will display what they do, making it easy to sort useful seeds from ordinary ones before combat. Seeds shot from the gun are not consumed unless they hit an enemy, so missed shots do not waste ammunition.

Its seed effects include several combat modifiers:

• increased fire rate
• restores health when hitting targets
• increased damage
• sets targets on fire
• increased resilience gain
• increased velocity and range
• slows targets
• increased knockback

Because the effect is tied to the seed type, the Seed Gun is best treated as a flexible weapon rather than a single fixed damage tool. Seeds that improve damage, fire rate, or projectile speed are better suited for general combat, while healing, slowing, burning, and knockback effects give it more situational utility. The hover preview in the inventory is especially useful for identifying which seeds are worth saving for the gun and which are better left for farming or storage.

Since the weapon only consumes seeds on hit, it rewards accuracy and makes it relatively forgiving when firing at moving targets at range. Its usefulness also depends heavily on the seeds available in the world, so the strength of the gun scales with access to a wider variety of crop and flower seeds.
