Increased Usefulness of Throwing Weapons: Giving throwable items like grenades, knives, and shurikens a ranged boost and special effects makes them viable and interesting for longer stretches of the game.

Creative Effects: The special effects (such as grenades splitting into shrapnel, shurikens bouncing, or the Bee Grenade releasing honey) really add personality and fun to the weapon. It also makes each thrown weapon feel unique, encouraging players to experiment.

Post-Wall of Flesh Power: The crafting recipe with Hallowed Bars and Illegal Gun Parts keeps it balanced, as it requires post-WoF materials, while still providing a significant power boost for early Hardmode.

Ammo Efficiency: The 20% chance to not consume ammo gives a nice bit of sustainability to the weapon, helping to balance out the use of potentially expensive consumable items.
