Notes
This star sacrifices quite a bit of damage and range for piercing and a lower MP cost. Because of this, it is not as practical as a tiered star would be in many situations. However, it can be useful when it is difficult to directly hit a specific target due to surrounding minions, like in the Wine Cellar, Cube God, Skull Shrine, Septavius’ first phase, and clearing dungeon minions, similar to a quiver. It is pretty much an extra katana shot with a bit more range and damage.
Additionally, the extra 2 defense is useful as a passive bonus for situations where the additional damage of a star isn’t as necessary.
Its name roughly translates to “Shadow Star” in Japanese. (影星)
History:
On release, the Kageboshi used to be dropped by Daichi the Fallen alongside the Wand of the Fallen. A later update moved the drop to the Jade and Garnet Statues, with Daichi dropping the Orb of Aether in its place.
Before Exalt Version 1.5.0.0 (May 2021), this item’s DEF stat bonus was +2, had 8.4 range, costed 80 MP, dealt 414-506 damage but shot only one star, didn’t boomerang, and had a held effect which gave speedy.
