The Apoctosis Array is a craftable post-Moon Lord magic gun that is a direct upgrade to the Ion Blaster. Like its predecessor, it fires ion blasts that continuously accelerate with their damage depending on the user's current mana level. The ion blast's damage is multiplied by the amount of mana the player has, further multiplied by 0.01, and multiplied again by 0.6 if the player is under the Astral Injection buff. The percentage of the blast's size is equal to the amount of mana multiplied by 0.375, meaning the player needs at least 267 mana in order for the blast to be full-sized.

Its best modifier is Mythical.

Trivia

• The ion blasts shrink in size as their damage decreases.
• The word apoctosis is likely a reference to the term apoptosis, or programmed cell death, which occurs as a normal, controlled part of an organism's growth.
  • Apoptosis comes from the Ancient Greek word ἀπόπτωσις, which means falling off. This is likely where the effect or etymology of the weapon comes from.
