If I understand use time correctly, the coin gun fires 7.5 coins per second with no modifiers. This means, with each platinum coin being 1 million copper coins, it takes 37.5 million copper coins to fire that gun for 5 seconds. If you assume 1 copper = 1 cent, then it takes $375,000 to fire that gun for 5 seconds. Agile reduces the use time to 7, meaning it fires about 8.5 coins per second, increasing it to $425,000 to fire that gun for 5 seconds. Of course, I could be wrong in one of my calculations or my understanding of how the game works, feel free to correct me.

[@bunglesii9204]

I haven't seen this in the comments anywhere and i thought that people should see this. The way i farmed for this weapon is by trapping a flying dutchman, and then setting up some lava and conveyor belts to make the farm afkable. The dutchman spawns pirates in, that die in the lava and any drops are brought to you by the conveyors. Very easy to do, and you only need one pirate map.

[@Rob526]

[@Spacebums]

Honestly, I'd like a slight rework on the coin gun to make it more viable. Maybe have it drop a percentage of the money fired after it hits? That way it still costs money to fire it, but you aren't losing a full 300 platinum after firing it for a minute lmao.

[@abcrasshadow9341]

I am pretty sure you can deal more damage with the Zenith due to 'lanceing' where you aim in the opposite direction of your target and hit with the returning blades, this more or less tripples the DPS of the Zenith but turns it into a 'shortsword' in that direction. I find it funny that the endgame melee weapon is actually a short sword in disguise.

[@godslayer9000]

You know how calamity has those no damage type guns that use exclusive ammo that bosses only drop once? the hydra, the elephant killer, the explosive shotgun shells. Coin gun was that before calamity was even a thing. I used to make a "savings account by putting a percentage of my gold in a seperate chest every in-game day, and only used it after I got the coin gun. I converted all those coins to gold coins, and used it when my preffered choice of weapon was not dealing enough dps to outlive the boss, or if I wanted a boss down earlier than normal, like duke fishron. it also helped me immensely in farming mimics and other high hp enemies. Sure it can out-dps the zenith with platinum, but even on gold it deals insane damage. You also get a lot of money from pirate invasion and its drops, so you can do both ammo darming and gun farming at the same time.

[@SolstaceWinters]

Recently, my friends and I finished up a playthrough in The Constant seed. During that run, we had a Pirate invasion, and... something bugged. I didn't get a Coin Gun.... I got FIVE Coin Guns. I didn't think much of it at the time, because I'm still not that knowledgeable of Terraria (my skills lie in Minecraft, I'm afraid), but after the fight my friends were freaking out and saying "nah, nah, nice try Chaos, stop lying". So I dropped them to prove it. I'm pretty sure it was a latency thing, as we had a lot of strange occurrences during the playthrough (such as Chlorophyte bullets being unable to actually home into their targets and instead "balling up" at a single point ahead of the foe and lazily moving ahead of them, made it really difficult for me as a Ranged fighter). Still kept one of the coin guns though, at least. They are rare, and it could be a funny playthrough to try sometime, starting with the Coin Gun.

[@SuperLane-tr7in]

I used to use this weapon in a old server by the name of Geldar. It was my surprise tool that I used when I challenged and placed bets on pvp matches. Rules were “only pre *insert boss*. As long as it was after wall of fleash, I’ve never lost with it.

I find the coin gun is VERY good if you use gold coins exclusively with it, platinum is definitely only for journey mode or in modded when money is easier to get.

Late to comment: The Zenith has a strange property where all swords thrown return to the players back; the more zoomed out you play (4k), the more extreme this effect comes, making your back the single strongest part of the zenith. Simply aim your mouse to one of the four corners of the screen and watch your back melt enemies, probably faster than the coin gun still.

[@prismrefractrb4691]

And it covers like almost half the screen and hits ALL enemy's unlike the coin gun that hits only one

I’ve used the coin gun in an actual play through because I was lucky enough to get it on my first pirate invasion. It’s actually quite the solid weapon with a ranged armor set and just silver coins, really shreds through the mech bosses and with silver coins the cost isn’t that bad.

weaker weapons are kinda better for the Greedy Ring since its Lucky Coin effect drops coins for every hit rather than kill.

[@beany69]

For anyone concerned about the pirate's ghost killing you, I have a simple solution. Build up about 10 - 15 blocks above the lava pit (to make sure none of them will jump up to hit you) build out around 5 or 6 blocks on both sides. Make the sides of the platform out of blocks and the middle out of platforms (to easily fly into.) Close the top about 10 blocks above (so parrots can't kill you.) Get a War Table from the OOA (tier one spawns the Dark Mages, and they drop it. Later waves have more Dark Mages, so its a higher chance of getting it, but its more dangerous.) for the extra sentry slot. Set an AoE sentry at the bottom to kill the pirates faster, and one in the box with you. Preferably, make the one with you a single target sentry, like the Ballista sentries. Wear summoner gear for the slots, but if you want to be safe, wear melee. The extra minions are not necessary. Build a mini platform inside of your box to jump onto, since when a ghost goes through blocks the sentry will not target it, and it will always get at least one hit on you. Hope this helped all of you.

[@Geb1439]

It actually works pretty well in expert and especially master mode because of how easy it is to get money especially end game.

[@TizonaAmanthia]

I’m playing through Calamity right now on a server I’m hosting, if you have AlchemistNPC you can buy some of the bags from the Operator, then use the AutoTrash mod’s auto sell feature to sell all of the contents. Depending on the bag you bought, this will yield a small profit.

Coin gun is emblematic of what I think is Terraria's best quality: adjustable difficulty curve. If you got the skills nothing's stopping you from attempting bosses almost right away they become available but for everyone else there are so many ways to make the fight easier that eventually anyone is able to succeed. Make herb farm to craft potions, fish to craft even stronger potions, fish for better gear, grind for rare drops, farm money and reforge everything to max, create arena better suited for the boss's attack patterns, fill it with buffs like honey ponds, bast statues and heart lanterns etc., use all the buffs like bewitching table and so on. At some point you just become so powerful that the boss has nothing on you. Coin embodies that grind. If nothing else helps, just grind until it drops and then grind until you're so rich that you nuke even late game bosses in mere seconds. There's always a way

When 1.4 first came out, the For the Worthy seed interacted differently with Journey mode set to Master than it did normal Master mode (a total of 6x base instead of 4x base).

I think it would take a much better player than I am to legitimately beat the Moonlord without it.

You can increase the efficiency of your conveyor belt farm 5-fold by using the sdmg or the mega shark machine gun with the golden bullets along with the golden flask and the greedy ring. With this method in a crimson or corruption biome I averaged about a platinum coin every 42 seconds. I also include a water candle, Shadow candle and a battle potion as well

I love how everytime he says "of course I'm talking about" I'm absolutely clueless what's to come 😂

[@carriedthunder3883]

I've used the coin gun multiple times in modded playthroughs since it's so easy to grind platinus with QoL mods. The thing absolutely shreds everything. I haven't personally attempted it, but I suspect you could kill Scal with it.

[@isaaclopezruiz9597]

You technically could, but you can just upgrade it into the sevens striker instead or use any other weapon, even the zenith which more than doubles coin gun's dps.

[@antenym8947]

Yes, i have used it in a serious playthrough when i fought duke fishron. I fired silver coins though, not gold or platinum. The hallowed reapeater did too little damage so i used the coin gun that i just got from the pirate invasion instead (i did the teleporter cheese xD because otherwise its impossible).

0:07 The Last Prism comes to mind (when ran with a mana flower).

A few years back after a large update (can't remember which) one of my characters had a 999 stack of platinum coins for some reason. I never cheated them in and never dupe glitched. Still not sure what happened there, I'm gonna have to check if I still have that character.

[@TheImpatientGam3r]

Pirates events have not be fully afkable for awhile, pirate captains spawn pirate ghost which go through block and will kill you.

[@JakeHowie]

I used the coin gun to dunk on The Twins on my mastermode for the worthy playthrough. Only cost me ~6 platinum but was worth it. I then immediately used the drops to craft the super star shooter to cheese The Destroyer. Pretty epic gun.

[@thecountercounter9127]

Coin gun: *requires ludicrous amounts of cash just to fire it* Shimmer in 1.4.4, allowing you to get ~50 platinum in 10-20 seconds post skeletron: WELL well well...

[@flamedance58]

I could see a mod called the Bag of Counterfeit Money and it'd be like infinite money for the coin gun but slightly less dmg.

[@theauragamer6178]

as a new player who is going into hardmode for the first time i really am thankful for these videos if it wasnt for these videos i would be running around trying to get the hard mode ores useing something like copper shortsword

[@breezeless_7665]

this weapon kills enemies with kindness or by bribing them, depends on how you look at stuff

"I am Heavy Weapons Guy. This is my weapon.''

[@Azzathas]

i think if you get the most INSANE luck. you can set up a slime staff money farm and afk there forever. the problem is that the drops are SO rare to make the farm work, however, if you do get it, congradulations, unlimited damage

Alright so when i was like 8, for literally months, every day i’d use my 20 minutes of videos games to fight the pirate army on old pocket edition on an ipad, i dont know the exact number of the version but it was beautiful when after all that time, killing at least 1000 of each pirate type, I had finally. Got. The coin gun. And in this version you could create backups of characters or worlds at any time you wanted and use them to double ANYTHING at all in the inventory via chest and then deleting the backup and using your main character to take that (in a lot of cases) money. I duplicated platinum. I became the 8-bit beep boop equivalent of the angel of death with that thing. A god amongst pixelated men. My friends would show off their palladins hammers, their possessed hatchets, their terra blades. I would fight them and annhialate. Then when the new version came out, my ipad was too old to be able to run it for more than a few seconds on the loading screen and I lost it all but boy it was beautiful. Ever so beautiful. Duke fishron was the final boss technically at the time and he would die in less than 30 seconds with my 8000 DPS platinum devastation beam. Now it is all lost. 10/10 game bro terraria slaps.

[@geesester8073]

i actually beat the twins with this gun in a ranger run i had. at that stage the best way to beat it is to use gold coins. get like roughly 8 platinum and smash them into 8 stacks of gold coins. 100 dmg per shot is nothing to scoff at. its pretty good for the mech bosses.

[@vividwizard6166]

I don't think you can afk pirate invasion, atleast not until you get high defense and a good summon depending on the mode, Pirates Curse is the enemy summoned from killing a pirate captain and in master mode could easily 2 shot you, along with decently high health 500/1000/1500 that's no problem when playing but unless you have stardust dragon I don't think you will be able to AFK it.

[@Scratchy__The_cat]

I wanna say something, a NEW video was released explaining how the lucky coin drop from the pirate invasion can be used to gain- EHEM. 1 PLATINUM IN A SINGULAR SECOND (although sadly these rates are with post moon lord gear so it can be more of a platinum in FIVE seconds (: )

[@napppann3486]

"And they said money cant solve problems...." -funny tax man probably

[@udfdsfrgfdrgfd]

well i was gonna say someone should do a playthrough with just the coin gun but i just immediately got recommended a video of someone already doing that

[@gommyboi380]

This is just like that one gun in dmc5 but here dante didnt do the Michael Jackson dance.
