Not to be confused with Effervescence, a magic weapon that also fires bubbles.
The Vortexpopper producing bubbles and launching bullets at a Target Dummy.

The Vortexpopper is a craftable Hardmode gun and the direct upgrade to the Xenopopper. When used, it fires a spread of bubbles from the gun, and extra bubbles off-screen from any direction. After a short delay, the bubbles will pop and fire a bullet towards the cursor.

Its best modifier is Unreal.

Tips

  • Using the Vortexpopper with Chlorophyte Bullets guarantees most shots to be hit. However, the large amount of dust particles can cause lag.
