The '''Fire Blaster''' is the first [[Staff Upgrade]] obtained by [[Fox McCloud]] in ''[[Star Fox Adventures]]''. It allows him to fire small energy blasts from the tip of [[Krystal's Staff]] at distant objects, such as switches and enemies. It is also used to make [[Bomb Spore Plant]]s explode, in order to reveal [[Bomb Spore]]s. Like most Staff Upgrades, using the Fire Blaster also depletes Fox's [[Staff Energy Meter]]. The Meter can be refilled by collecting [[Staff Energy Gem]]s, usually dropped by [[Magic Plant]]s. Along with all other Staff Upgrades, it can also be assigned to the [[Y Button]].

The '''Fire Blaster''' is the first [[Staff Upgrade]] that [[Fox McCloud|Fox]] obtains in ''[[Star Fox Adventures]]''. It allows him to shoot fireballs from the tip of [[Krystal's Staff]] at distant objects, including enemies and their associated switches. Fox obtains the Fire Blaster upgrade from a [[Staff Cavern]] in [[ThornTail Hollow]], shortly after obtaining the Staff itself.


Fox finds the Fire Blaster shortly after obtaining the Staff in [[ThornTail Hollow]]. It is located in a small cave, which has its entrance behind the [[Ancient Well]]. Fox first has to defeat four [[SharpClaw]]s nearby to make the large rock move aside revealing the main entrance.
Other essential uses of the Fire Blaster include: detonating [[Bomb Spore Plant]]s and lighting torches. Some enemies, such as [[Peeper]]s, can only be defeated from the Fire Blaster. It also plays an essential role during the boss fights against [[Galdon]] and [[Drakor]].


After the resurrection of [[Andross]], Krystal retrieved her Staff and tried to fire at him, to no effect.
Like the other Staff Upgrades, using Fire Blaster takes away from Fox's [[Staff Energy Meter]], which is only refillable via [[Staff Energy Gem]]s. Also, like the other Staff Upgrades, the player can assign the Fire Blaster to the Y button from the [[C-Stick Inventory]].


Near the end of the game, after Fox freed [[Krystal]] and [[Andross]] was resurrected, Krystal retrieved her Staff and tried using Fire Blaster on Andross, to no effect.
