1000 Needles!
Low damage, high rate of fire. Spiny! Remnants of Gun Cacti can be found throughout the Gungeon, but no one is certain as to their source. Perhaps they hail from a yet undiscovered Chamber? Regardless, their impressive needle capacity is a boon to any Gungeoneer.

Cactus is a gun that fires low-damage needles rapidly.

Notes[edit | edit source]

Cactus Flower - If the player has Broccoli or Orange, Cactus has a chance to fire a prickly pear that bounces off walls and fires needles in all directions.
Vegetables - If the player also has Broccoli, Cactus's damage is tripled, needle size is doubled, and needles pierce enemies and bounce off obstacles.
Pea Cannon - If the player has Pea Shooter, its shots become larger, deal more damage, and explode.
Succulent DOOM - If the player has Starpew, every Cactus shot fires a spread of 5 needles.
Thorn Bath, ooh! - If the player has Armor of Thorns, while holding Cactus, nails are periodically fired in all directions.

1000 Needles! is a reference to a move used by the Cactuar, a recurring enemy from the Final Fantasy series, who resembles a walking cactus.
The "undiscovered Chamber" in the Cactus' description may be the unused Old West floor.
