Using the Trimarang to attack Target Dummies.

The Trimarang is a pre-Hardmode boomerang crafted using three different boomerangs. Unlike most boomerangs, it does not have to return to the player before being fired, with a maximum of three Trimarangs that can be thrown out at one time.

Its best modifier is Godly or Demonic. Both modifiers increase the average damage output by the same amount. However, Ruthless might be preferred if the player already has very high critical strike chance.

Notes

  • The Trimarang can travel for 0.5 seconds before it starts decelerating, and eventually turning around to return towards the player. This results in having a maximum range of roughly 26.38 tiles.[1]
    • Melee speed bonuses increase the boomerang's velocity, which in turn increases its range.
      • Conversely, liquids will slow down the boomerang and reduce its range.
    • As soon as the boomerang begins decelerating, it gains infinite piercing and becomes capable of going through solid tiles. This allows it to hit enemies multiple times near end of its maximum range and slightly penetrate into tiles.
  • The Trimarang has a top speed of 49 mph when returning to the player, and can only exist for up to 1 minute before despawning. It will also despawn if its distance from the player is more than 187.5 tiles.
  • The Trimarang does not inflict the Frostburn debuff, unlike the Ice Boomerang, which is one of its ingredients.
  • The Trimarang has much less knockback than its components. This is likely so that all three thrown boomerangs can hit the target.

Tips

  • The Trimarang's DPS is worse at a range of 10 tiles compared to the Thorn Chakram and Flamarang. However, it beats these two boomerangs at a range of 25–27 tiles as the thrown boomerangs linger on the target.

Trivia

  • Despite the Trimarang being crafted from three different boomerangs, its design only resembles the Enchanted Boomerang.
