**Peachone** is a weapon in *Vampire Survivors*. It is the starting weapon of Toastie. It is unlocked by surviving for 10 minutes as any character.

Peachone and Ebony Wings can be united into Vandalier.

## Effects

Peachone is a bird that flies around the player and bombards a circling zone with projectiles. The zone revolves clockwise around the player. The bird moves behind the player at a slower speed, but the bombarding circle will always stay in a position relative to the player.

By default, Peachone fires 4 sets of 4 projectiles. Each set fires all of its projectiles at about the same spot, set by the position of the visible zone at the instant that set starts. A set firing is on a different timer to the zone being active, so the first set can start firing up to a second after the zone lights up. This means that the number of sets per activation can vary by 1.

Duration increases the time bombards are active, with 1 second roughly equal to 1 set by default. Area increases the Area-of-Effect of the projectiles, but not the size of the bombarding circle itself. Projectile Speed increases how fast the circle moves. Amount increases how many projectiles are fired per set. Cooldown bonuses reduce the time between each activation, the time between each set of projectiles, and the time between each projectile within a set. The movement speed of Peachone can be increased with the Movement Speed stat, but it has virtually no effect to its capability.

### Arcanas

Selecting Gemini (I) Arcana creates a counterpart - Cygnus - that is functionally the same as Peachone. It levels up as Peachone does and benefits from Limit Breaking. Its bombardment area is slightly further than Peachone's.

Twilight Requiem (II) allows the projectiles to explode with a different effect when they hit the ground.

## Tips

* Peachone benefits the most from Cooldown and Duration bonuses increasing the active duration and attack more often when so.
* Peachone should not be considered a main damage dealer, but rather supplementary damage. It works the best in large crowds of enemies. The projectiles have infinite pierce.
* Peachone has an interesting interaction with the Chaos in the Dark Night Arcana, where every 10 seconds the circular zone slows down, stops, changes direction, then accelerates rapidly, and every 10 seconds starting :05 its speed doubles and halves alternately, in total causing its speed to increase every 20 seconds.

## Trivia

* Movement Speed used to increase the bombarding circles' speed, like Projectile Speed, however, this was not intended and was fixed eventually.
* This weapon is inspired by the sub-weapon version of Suzaku from the *Castlevania* series. The attack pattern is similar to the Item Crash of Cardinal, Red Bird.
* Peachone has a similar pronunciation to "piccione" (IPA: /pitˈʧone/, pronounced peach-AW-ne), the Italian word for "pigeon".
* Peachone and Ebony Wings are among the only weapons that do not require a passive item to be evolved/united.
	+ This trait is shared with Bracelet, and technically Vento Sacro, as the normally requisite Hollow Heart can be avoided under certain circumstances, such as by playing Minnah Mannarah, who has Bloody Tear as her starting weapon.
