Eventide



The Eventide is a Hardmode bow that auto-fires five streams of colorful rainbows if wooden arrows are used as ammunition. One of the five shots fired by the bow does double the original damage. Each stream can pierce up to four enemies and can be spread out by moving the cursor while firing. The Eventide has a chance of being dropped by the Empress of Light.

Tips

 * It is recommended that if piercing is not desired, arrows other than Wooden Arrows should be used as the rainbow streak fired will still do double the original damage.

Trivia

 * As the weapons that the Empress of Light drops are based on her attacks, the Eventide seems to be based off of her Ethereal Lance.
 * The projectiles fired from the Eventide look like actual rainbow swords if you take a closer look.
 * Like the Last Prism, the Eventide has secret colors themes for developers and beta testers. This is triggered by using a specific set of character names, the known colors are listed as follows (case sensitive): Redigit (Purple), Cenx (Pink/Green), Loki (Red/Black), Yoraiz0r (Pink), Crowno (Purple), Lazure (Pink/Blue), Leinfors (Purple), Ghostar (White/Blue), Khaios (Green/Black), and darthmorf (Red/Black).
 * Its piercing capability and the fact that one shot deals double damage makes it near-equal to the Tsunami in power, even though the Tsunami can be obtained earlier in the game.
 * Eventide is Old English for "evening time".
