Lore & Background
Wielders of this artifact speak of a strange resonance in the wood, as if the weapon remembers the salt spray and the desperate cries of sailors lost to the Duke's domain. It is said that only those who have faced the fury of the ocean depths can truly master its rhythm, for the bow demands precision rather than brute force. Each pull of the string releases not five separate attacks, but a singular, concentrated wall of destruction that can turn the tide of any Hardmode conflict.
In Their Own Story
The impact was instantaneous and devastating. All five shafts struck the Duke's flank simultaneously, bypassing his invincibility frames with brutal efficiency. For a heartbeat, the chaos of battle froze, replaced by the sight of the massive beast shuddering under the concentrated assault. The ocean roared in approval as the Tsunami had done its work, turning the tide of war with a single, perfect volley.
Reader's Guide
For optimal performance, equip Holy Arrows or Ichor Arrows. The straight-line trajectory ensures that all five arrows connect with the target, triggering the Holy Arrow's star rain or applying the Ichor debuff to lower defense before subsequent hits land. Always aim for the 'Unreal' modifier to maximize damage and critical strike potential, transforming this bow into a weapon capable of shredding even the most durable Hardmode foes.
