Golden Slingshot Effects

ACNH - Golden Slingshot DIY Recipe

Note: We are still looking into whether or not there are any special effect.

Does Not Shoot Three Bullets

Unlike previous games in the series where the golden slingshot would shoot three bullets at a time, the golden slingshot in New Horizons has no such effect.

Limited Durability

ACNH - A resident breaks a golden shovel

Translation: “Oh no! The Golden Shovel broke! Guess I wore it out...”

Other golden tools in ACNH will break after extended use, so it is rather likely that this one will too. If it is like the other golden tools, it will break after 200 uses.

To the first comment: Yes, the gold balloon will reappear until you have the recipe safe in your hands!

So I want to know if I will get a new chance at the recipe after losing the present if the game didn’t realize I lost it? I think it was a glitch but it hit the ground and disappeared and my character wasn’t shocked. What do I do if I never get the recipe now??
