The Blood Rain Bow attacking Target Dummies.

The Blood Rain Bow is a pre-Hardmode bow that has a 1/8 (12.5%) chance of being dropped by Wandering Eye Fish and Zombie Mermen. When used, it causes a spread of 1–3 streams of blood (average of 1.83 streams)^[1] to rain from the sky, directed towards the cursor. Each use only consumes one arrow. The streams dissipate upon contact with an enemy or a block.

Its best modifier is Unreal.

Tips

• As with all bows that convert arrows to a special projectile, arrows with the highest damage stat should be used as no special arrow effects are applied.

Trivia

• The Daedalus Stormbow can be considered an upgrade to the Blood Rain Bow due to its similar ability to rain projectiles from the sky.
• If Blood and Gore is disabled in the settings, the bow rains down greyish clouds instead.
• The Blood Rain Bow's tooltip 'Reign in Blood' is both a reference to the thrash metal band Slayer's third studio album of the same name, and a pun on the word "rain".
