As its simple name and typical appearance would suggest, the Boomerang is the weakest and most basic Boomerang-class weapon in the game. It grants an [[Attack]] boost of 13, and can be purchased for 750 coins and sold for 375 coins. As a very basic weapon, the Boomerang can be upgraded into a [[Reinforced Boomerang]] (which has double the Attack boost) through [[Alchemy]], which can be further upgraded into the [[Crucerang]]. Like all Boomerang-class weapons, the Boomerang will strike all enemies in battle when attacked with, but the damage diminishes for each enemy to the right of the leftmost foe, resulting in the rightmost enemies in large groups taking very little damage.
The boomerang is an item in the game, and can be found in [[Mt. Krakatroda]]. It may be used as ammo in tank battles, either knocking down one piece of enemy ammo, or flying off screen if it fails to hit anything.
