EarthBound Beginnings
The Air Gun is the second and strongest gun in EarthBound Beginnings. It can only be used by Lloyd and is bought in Youngtown's drugstore for $1400, selling for $700. This weapon adds an additional 46 OFFENSE to Lloyd's base stats.
The Air Gun is bought after Yucca Desert if the player has enough money. Lloyd will usually fight enemies in the Swamp such as the Mook and Starman outside with it and eventually defeat the enemies in Mt. Itoi including the BlueStarman and Star Miner. Once the player eventually acquires this item, it is recommended to throw away the formerly equipped weapon; most likely the Stun Gun.
Trivia[]
- This is the most expensive weapon in the entire game.
- EarthBound's equivalent to the Air Gun is the Toy Air Gun equipped by Jeff found in Threed's drugstore for $215. It offers +32 Offense, significantly less than Lloyd's. Mother 3 lacks an equivalent weapon for this item.
- In the companion guide, it is called "Air Gun" in Mother and EarthBound Beginnings, and "Toy Air Gun" in Mother 1 + 2.
- Its description reads, "It's not as powerful as a real gun, but it is pretty intense. At point-blank range it can easily punch a hole in a juice can, to say the least. A strong ally of the weak Lloyd.".
