The Onyx Annihilator is a midish-Hardmode gun. It resembles a a dark bluish form of the Onyx Blaster, which is its precursor. The Onyx Annihilator is available post Plantera. It requires Shroomite Bars, along with souls of Fright from Skeletron Prime to make. The Shroomite Bars give it this bluish coloration.

The Onyx Annihilator fires five rounds of bullet ammunition at the cost of one, which doesn’t seem that exciting, even if the damage is much better than its predecessor. However, the Onyx Annihilator will then operate its secondary weapon; the same projectile from the Onyx Blaster will multiply across the entire area and storm the region, dealing a massive amount of secondary damage.

The Onyx Annihilator fires slower than the Onyx Blaster, but is incredibly strong, and can dispatch crowds and bosses with little rounds.

It is the best shotgun in game.

So it fires like the onyx blaster but instead of a single onyx shard it like seven? Cool.
I like the idea, but it might get overshadowed by other guns at the same stage of the game slime the Venus Magnum.

its a good idea, but the gap from Onyx Blaster to Onyx Annihilator is too short, I mean Onyx Blaster already is an upgrade to another weapon
Not to mention, Onyx Blaster is good even after Mech Bosses, so I think this should maybe be post Golem/post Plantera, something to use against Duke Fishron and EoL.

In general though I feel like there should be a bit of a gap in equipment progression from Post-Plantera all the way to Pre ML, a change like that would help your weapon work better in the game.

What if it used Shroomite Bars instead and had a blue coloration? Makes it Post Plantera. Maybe it can even use the Tactical Shotgun in the recipe. It can become Yellow rarity, and deal 36 damage a shot, which would make it much harder hitting, and the best shotgun in game.
 
Made it Post Plantera, boosted stats, and bumped up its rarity one tier: it’s now Yellow.
