The Bananarang is a Hardmode boomerang. It returns to the owner once it hits an enemy, comes in contact with a block, or reaches its maximum range. The Bananarang can be dropped by Clowns, which spawns during Blood Moons.
On the Desktop version,
Console version, and
Mobile version, the Bananarang is not stackable, and can be thrown rapidly, with a maximum of 10 Bananarangs being thrown out at the same time. Its drop chance is
10*1/10 (10%). Its best modifier is Godly or Demonic. Both modifiers increase the average damage output by the same amount.
On the Old-gen console version and Nintendo
version, Bananarangs can be stacked up to 10 in one slot. The bigger the stack is, the more can be thrown out at the same time. Their drop chance is
3.33*1/30 (3.33%), and they drop in stacks of 1–4. The Bananarang cannot be reforged, and therefore cannot have modifiers.
Notes
- The Bananarang does not autofire on the
Old-gen console version.
Tips
- In contrast to Light Discs, Bananarangs do not ricochet and do not travel quite as far. However, the larger stack size and low delay between throws means that a player can keep a greater number of projectiles in the air at once.
- The Bananarang is able to be obtained as early as the first Blood Moon in Hardmode, yet inflicts more damage than most Adamantite and Titanium weapons.
Trivia
- Bananarang is a portmanteau of the words banana and boomerang.
