Traveling Merchant stock and charged pulse arrows
Purchased from the Traveling Merchant for 45 gold after Plantera has been vanquished, the Pulse Bow transforms all standard arrows into luminous pulse bolts unaffected by gravity. It fires at a use time of 20, dealing 80 base ranged damage with 3 knockback and an innate 11% critical strike rate. The bolts travel along flat, straight paths across extensive distances.
Confined corridor ricochet and quiver synergy
Each pulse bolt can pierce up to 5 enemies and rebound off solid blocks up to 5 times before vanishing. Bouncing off a surface reduces bolt damage by 10%, while passing through a target reduces remaining damage by 20%. In enclosed underground passages or boxed arenas, bouncing bolts strike clustered groups multiple times. Equipping the Magic Quiver and Shroomite Headgear amplifies arrow speed and ranged damage. The premier prefix is Unreal.
Trivia
- Pulse bolts illuminate surrounding tiles and can bounce off solid surfaces up to 5 times without succumbing to gravity.
- Any unique properties of loaded arrows, including Ichor or Holy Arrow star showers, are overridden by the pulse bolt conversion.
