Daedalus Stormbow



The Daedalus Stormbow is a Hardmode bow which rains arrows down from the sky, instead of firing them from the bow itself. Each shot fires three arrows with an additional chance to spawn one extra arrow ( one less arrow while using Holy, Unholy, Hellfire, or Jester's Arrows), while only consuming a single arrow from the player's inventory. The arrows fall in a wide spread towards the area the cursor was pointed. The Daedalus Stormbow has a chance to be dropped by Hallowed Mimics.

Tips

 * Arrows shot with the Daedalus Stormbow have a tendency to impact and be blocked by terrain or other objects above the target (much like the Starfury). It is therefore best used in wide open areas, especially at the surface, rather than in confined areas.
 * The Daedalus Stormbow synergizes tremendously well with Holy Arrows as each arrow fired will summon two stars. This combination is outstandingly powerful during early Hardmode, especially against large enemies and bosses like the mechanical bosses, most notably The Destroyer ( although there are slightly more powerful alternatives – see Guide:The Destroyer strategies).
 * Due to the fact that the player can fire at enemies from a safe enclosed area, it is a very useful weapon even up to the endgame.
 * The Magic Quiver's increase in velocity causes arrows from this weapon to fall faster.

Trivia

 * In, was a skillful craftsman and artist and was seen as a symbol of wisdom, knowledge, and power. He invented and built the  for king Minos of Crete, but shortly after finishing it, king Minos had Daedalus imprisoned within the labyrinth. He and his son  devised a plan to escape by using wings made of wax that Daedalus had invented. They escaped, but Icarus did not heed his father's warnings and flew too close to the sun. The wax melted and Icarus fell to his death.
 * The wings that Daedalus crafted were made of feathers and curved to look like those of a bird. Fittingly, the Daedalus Stormbow's limbs appear as a pair of feathery wings.
