Quad-Barrel Shotgun

The Quad-Barrel Shotgun is a gun that can be purchased for from the Arms Dealer while he is in a Graveyard.

This weapon can be obtained early on, by obtaining the Boomstick from a Jungle Crate or Ivy Chest, which will avoid the danger of the Goblin Army event from occuring by the other method. A second early method is by breaking either a Shadow Orb or Crimson Heart and receiving a Musket or The Undertaker respectively. It can be then bought from the Arms Dealer provided you have enough money. This weapon can be devastating early on, capable of one-shotting Crimson and Corruption enemies at close range.

It fires a spread of four bullets at a 45 degree angle while having twice the spread of the Shotgun. This spread is very substantial and it is difficult to aim without being right next to a foe due to its unreliable spread variation. However, it can be used against groups of enemies and can reliably hit bosses and bigger enemies.
