Animation of the Tsunami.

The Tsunami is a Hardmode bow that has a 1/5 (20%) chance of being dropped by Duke Fishron. When used, it fires a volley of five arrows, consuming one arrow per use.

Its best modifier is Unreal.

Notes

• When fired at the correct angle and distance, up to 2 of 5 of the Tsunami's arrows can be shot through closed doors.

Tips

• This very lethal weapon can be obtained as soon as Hardmode is activated. If it is acquired before killing Golem, Plantera or any of the mechanical bosses, it can speed up game progression tremendously. However, characters playing in Expert Mode or Master Mode worlds may have much more difficulty beating Duke Fishron at such an early stage, so it may be advisable to gear up beforehand.
• Holy Arrows and Ichor Arrows synergize well with the Tsunami because of the "five straight" shot pattern it possesses. If all five arrows hit, Holy Arrows rain down 10 stars to the target location, and Ichor Arrows can lower defense with the first arrow while the other four do even more damage resulting from it.
• Because of how piercing damage works, the Tsunami's damage is maximized by using non-piercing arrows. Piercing projectiles like Jester's Arrows or Unholy Arrows can add an invincibility frame to the enemy (which normally lasts 0.17 seconds) that prevents more than one instance of damage, crippling the DPS of the bow to one fifth of its capabilities.

Trivia

• The Tsunami appears in the real-time strategy video game Dungeon Defenders 2 as part of a crossover.
