Fire and Reload

The Wulfrum Blunderbuss is a craftable pre-Hardmode ranged weapon which uses Wulfrum Metal Scraps or Silver Coins as ammunition. When used, it fires a spread of six scrap bullets in a manner similar to a shotgun - the farther the cursor is from the gun, the tighter the spread but the lower its damage. This linearly scales up to a maximum of 28.75 or more tiles away, in which the spread decreases by 66.67% but damage also decreases by 20%. The player is required to reload and consume ammo after every 30 shots. Each individual bullet has a default armor penetration of 3.

Its best modifier is Unreal.

Tips

• Because this gun uses one Wulfrum Metal Scrap or one Silver Coin for thirty shots, it is easy to directly recycle the coins dropped by enemies into more ammunition to kill more enemies and use their coins for even more ammunition - rinse and repeat.
  • However, because it is one of the first weapons available and does not use bullets, it is best to use it as a starter weapon.
