 Файл:Stellar Nova Icon (The Stars Above).png
**Stellar Novas** are first unlocked after defeating the [[Шаблон:Modname/The Vagrant of Space and Time|The Vagrant of Space and Time]]. They are activated by pressing the Stellar Nova key (default: Шаблон:Key). Stellar Novas can only be activated upon gathering sufficient Stellar Nova Energy to fill the Nova Gauge. Stellar Nova energy accumulates gradually in combat at a rate of roughly 1/s. Defeating enemies has a chance to drop Starlight, which will give the player 5 Stellar Nova Energy automatically.

You can change Stellar Novas in the Spatial Disk as well as affixing Шаблон:+ which can modify some stats or effects of Stellar Novas

Stellar Nova damage scales with boss progression:

* No bosses defeated: 100 base damage
* King Slime: 150 base damage
* Eye of Cthulhu: 220 base damage
* Evil Boss (Brain/Eater): 300 base damage
* Skeletron: 400 base damage
* Wall of Flesh: 900 base damage
* Mechanical Boss: 1450 base damage

There are currently 7 Stellar Novas in The Stars Above.

## Stellar Novas

◆ **Prototokia Aster** is unlocked after defeating [[Шаблон:Modname/The Vagrant of Space and Time|The Vagrant of Space and Time]]. It summons a sword that flies above the player and goes towards the cursor after a few seconds. When the sword comes in contact with an enemy it inflicts Void Athropy for 30s, which deals damage over time and can stack. If you get a critical hit a portion of the cost is refunded. You can cast it 2 times, but each cast deals 50% of the damage in the Stellar Nova menu.

Файл:Astral Icon (The Stars Above).png If your starfarer is Asphodene: You can cast for free 2 more times but the damage is 25% of the damage in the menu. Also only the first cast inflicts Void Athropy and Void Atrophy doesn't stack.

Файл:Umbral Icon (The Stars Above).png If your starfarer is Eridani: the second hit gives you a +400% damage boost for 5s, but Void Atrophy doesn't stack.

◆ **Unlimited Blade Works** is unlocked after defeating the world evil boss ( Eater of Worlds / Brain of Cthulhu )
When cast it creates an empowering field for 20 seconds, and rain down a barrage of blades, reducing damage dealt by enemies by 10% for 20 seconds on hit
All allies within the radius of the empowering field will gain "bladeforged" buff wich increases damage, knockback critical strike chance and armor penetration by
2% up to 10% depending on the player's current HP (capped at 500 HP.) Duration in seconds is proportional to Energy Cost divided by 10

Файл:Astral Icon (The Stars Above).png If your starfarer is Asphodene: Bladeforged's cap is raised to 15% and now increases defense based on percentage values up to 8. Additonally, Bladeforged perists for 10 seconds after the Nova ends.

Файл:Umbral Icon (The Stars Above).png If your starfarer is Eridani: Bladeforged no longer increases damage, but attacking with projectiles trigger follow-up attacks (3 second cooldown.) Foes within the field take 10% more damage.

◆ **Guardian's Light** is unlocked after visiting a meteorite or after defeating Skeletron
The Stellar Nova acts differently depending on the player's Aspected damage type: Thundercrash if Melee, Golden Gun if Ranged, Nova Bomb if Magic, Needlestorm if Summoner, and Silence and Squall otherwise.

* Thundercrash: After activation, gain Bearer of Light for 10 seconds and fly towards your cursor, dealing incredibly powerful damage to the first foe struck. Gain Invincibility for 3 seconds upon activation, independent of the attack's duration.
* Golden Gun: After activation, gain Bearer of Light for 10 seconds while unleashing a bolt of piercing light. You can press the Stellar Nova key 2 more times to repeat the attack while Bearer of Light is active, dealing 1/3 damage each. Critical strikes explode, dealing 50% base damage.
* Nova Bomb: After activation, gain Bearer of Light for 10 seconds while unleashing a powerful void projectile that tracks foes. After 2 seconds or after striking a foe, the attack will detonate in a large explosion. Inflicts Shadowflame for 10 seconds on foes struck by the blast.
* Needlestorm: After activation, gain Bearer of Darkness for 10 seconds and unleash 5 Woven Needles. After striking a foe or a surface, the needles weave into Threadlings and attack nearby foes (treated as minions.) Damage is split between Woven Needles and Threadlings.
* Silence and Squall: After activation, gain Bearer of Darkness for 10 seconds while unleashing Silence, inflicting Frostburn for 8 seconds. Instantly follow up with Squall, dealing damage while creating a frost field on impact that deals damage over time for 8 seconds.

If you don't get hit 50% of the cost will be refunded.
