Tips

 * Shooting a Heart Arrow at the Wall of Flesh's mouth will freeze the entire wall. However this does not work for the eyes, as this will only freeze the eye.
 * However, the mouth has 12 defense at least, which reduces all damage taken by 6, effectively requiring the player to buy at least 8000 arrows to completely defeat it unless they use a better bow. Even if with a better bow, it is only effective with more players, as only one is needed to freeze the wall while the rest can quickly tear it down from the eyes.
 * Shooting a Heart Arrow can also cause the Dungeon Guardian to freeze, so you can get the Bone Key ridiculously easily pre-Hardmode. However, the player will have to buy about 9000 Heart Arrows (critical hits account for about 1000 extra hits) to actually kill the Dungeon Guardian.
 * It's not recommended to use a Sharanga or a Molten Fury, as those bows and similar weapons all convert the arrows to special arrows which will NOT inflict the debuff at all.
 * Shooting a Heart Arrow at The Destroyer's head will immobilize it entirely. Hitting it anywhere else will not cause it to freeze.
 * With the help of another player, the fight can be finished much faster as damaging it becomes extremely easy.
 * Wyverns and similar worm type enemy's heads will continue moving if only the body is frozen, leaving the segment behind. After the debuff wears off, it will follow the movement of the head, (not teleporting to the rest of the "body") making it easy to predict and to defeat.
 * All bosses are easy victims to Heart Arrows Boss. However, Duke Fishron is immune to this debuff. Minions can also be a problem if fighting bosses such as King Slime, as the minions will block the arrows, leaving the boss free to move.
 * Queen Bee exhibits bugged behavior with the debuff - While it will be stunned for the duration of the debuff, it's movement speed is significantly reduced even when the debuff wears off, and will last for the rest of the fight, making it easy to defeat.
 * The arrows are less effective against Golem, as damaging the fists/body/head (attached or flying) will not freeze the entire Golem.
 * However, since the invincible head can still be hit, in multiplayer it is possible to both damage the Golem and freeze it's head at the same time.
 * It is very useful for fast moving enemies and bosses such as the Ice Queen.
 * Players can't be affected by this debuff.
 * This item was likely removed due to it's ability to freeze almost all enemies in the entire game - With a Bow like Tsunami or Phantasm (This combination is only possible with third party tools), the only thing stands between the boss and the player would be the low damage of the arrows, which, again, can be compensated by purchasing massive quantities of them.
