Sounds
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. Much like the Xenopopper, it fires bubbles which erupt into bullets after a short delay. It fires many more bubbles than the Xenopopper and summons extra bubbles off-screen while in use, causing bullets to fly towards the cursor from every direction at once.

Its best modifier is Unreal.

Tips

  • The Vortexpopper is especially potent when paired with Chlorophyte Bullets or Verium Bullets, as its inaccuracy will no longer be a concern. Be wary that the extreme number of glowing dust particles on screen can cause FPS to drop.
