Shuriken

__NOTOC__
Shurikens are consumable ranged weapons that can pierce several enemies. Shurikens can be found in Pots and Chests around the world, and can be purchased from the Merchant for each.
 Shurikens have a chance of being retrievable again after use, even if they have hit enemies.
== Notes ==
* Like boomerangs, Shurikens can be thrown through single-block-thick walls, at certain angles.
== Tips ==
* As Shurikens both pierce and are affected by gravity, they can be thrown upwards to damage an enemy multiple times.
* Since Shurikens are easy to obtain, they are an effective early-game weapon. They are a good alternative to arrows, if the player does not have a bow.
** Even after getting a bow, they can remain relevant due to their ability to pierce multiple targets.
