Triple Star

Triple Star is One of Kirby's Special Items, and is NOT considered a Copy ability.

The Triple Star is the scepter that Daroach uses against Kirby in their first battle. Kirby can claim it for himself after defeating Dark Daroach to use in the final battle, but it can also be used in any level if all pieces of the Secret Map are found.

This magical item is golden rod with a larger box-shape on the end with a star symbol on each side. Three stars surround Kirby and provide a decent barrier, but they aren't as useful while moving. Kirby gains no hat when using this item.

The main attack of Triple Star allows Kirby to shoot one, two, or all three of the stars that circle him. If the B button is pressed they can be controlled somewhat using the D-pad before boomeranging back.

Triple Star works much like Master did in Kirby & the Amazing Mirror - it can do just about anything, such as lighting torches, allowing Kirby to acquire many missing treasure chests. (Use caution when using it on clouds as it disintegrates them.)

In the final battle against Dark Nebula, Triple Star isn't mandatory to use, and in fact Kirby may be better off using a faster ability such as Tornado if he's stored any in his Copy Palette.
