Church Cannon is a Firearm in Bloodborne. This was added with The Old Hunters DLC.
Church Cannon Description
"An oversized weapon used by the Healing Church. A type of cannon that fires with a curved trajectory and creates an explosion upon impact.
Originally designed for use by brawny men with deteriorated brains, not for just any ordinary hunter.
But the men lacked the wits to effectively operate firearms, and the weapon was quietly ushered into permanent storage."
Church Cannon Information
- Requires 16 Blood Stone Shards, 16 Twin Blood Shards, 16 Chunks and 1 Blood Rock and 5,040 Blood Echoes to fully upgrade
Location
- Found after activating the altar elevator to the Research Hall with the Eye Pendant activate the new elevator to go down. The send the elevator back up, which will reveal an altar with Laurence's Skull. Send the elevator down again via the switch and stand at the altar. This will take you down to a hidden chest. Step back onto the altar to go back.
Player Notes
- Similar to the regular Cannon fires a cannon ball at a large bullet cost, 2 less than regular Cannon.
- Normally the Church Cannon will have less range than the regular one and will also arc down when fired. However if you choose not to lock on and instead aim your camera upward, it actually travels further than the regular Cannon since the cannonball does not explode midair, making it a good fire-and-forget artillery.
- The Monocular can be used for manual aiming when used as an artillery piece.
- It also reloads faster than regular cannon.

"Making it a good fire and forget weapon" Bruh, you only have a handful of shots per world reload, you better not forget your shots.

Why is there a wheel on it? Does it transform into an RC-XD with enough bloodtinge?

"Fire and forget" is a term referring to self-guided munitions. Indirect fire could be applied, assuming you were firing at a target you did not have a clean line-of-sight to, but maybe just stick to "longer range with some practice"

Why on earth is this listed as a Trick Weapon?!? I mean, I can understand someone mistaking the Fist of Gratia for a trick weapon, and I can even almost understand putting the Loch Shield there too, but this?? It's literally a Firearm! Is there not a Firearm list that could be at the bottom of the page instead of the woefully inaccurate Trick Weapon list?

It requires the exact same amount of upgrade materials as every other weapon in the game? No way
