== Trivia ==
* During Update 1.4.5 and before, the shockwaves had a limited range so that they would only appear 5 times maximum when used.
* Before Update 1.7.7, the weapon had 2 inaccuracy.
* The weapon is a possible reference to Dune (movie) and The Undeep from Lost Planet 1 & 2.
** It may also be a reference to the Mongolian Sandworm legend.
* Despite launching shockwaves, it has muzzle flash just like a conventional firearm, and hits flying enemies like anything else.
* The weapon's attack is based on the Volcanic Sandworm's diving and re-surfacing attacks, as it creates a shockwave that damages the player.
** This also implies that actually fires small invisible copies of itself which will burrow under the ground as they travel.
* This weapon seems to be edible, as it's found on the table of a New Year Dinner like Green Onions and many similar weapons.
** However, the forging recipe and boss drops do not include Organic Matter. In fact, they contain Ironstone and Parts, suggesting that this weapon is mechanical.
** Its cellar quote is also a reference to the New Year Dinner table.
* On an earlier update, could not destroy crates.
