Orbitars

The Orbitars (衛星 Eisei, "Satellites") are a type of weapon introduced in Kid Icarus: Uprising. Appearing as two objects floating to either side of the user, orbitars typically excel in ranged combat.

Attributes
Always coming in a pair, orbitars are the physical manifestation of divine power, originally created for defensive purposes. Due to the nature of the separate sources they fire from, orbitars are capable of hitting multiple targets at once. Their shots typically grow stronger the farther they travel, making them most effective at a distance.

When used in close-range combat, orbitars will shift from their positions and quickly spin in front of the user, attacking anything within their radius. However, their melee attacks are weak compared to their ranged capabilities.
