Vulcan Repeater

The Vulcan Repeater is a top tier Repeater, which looks like a purple Mythril Repeater. It fires Vulcan Bolts, which explode on impact, dealing damage to nearby enemies.

Since they explode, Vulcan Bolts cannot be retrieved.

The explosion can damage the player and 6 bolts will kill the player even with full dragon armor. Occasionally, a Vulcan Bolt will travel a short distance before splitting into two separate bolts.

Trivia

 * The name is likely a reference to the Roman god of fire and blacksmithing, Vulcan. It could also be a reference to the Star Trek race and planet Vulcan.
 * Even though it is considered the best repeater in the console version of Terraria, the Vulcan Repeater can actually be outclassed in damage per shot by a Hallowed Repeater with spectral arrows, including that the the arrows will also deal bonus Cursed Inferno damage aswell.
