The Ballistic Poison Bomb in use.

The Ballistic Poison Bomb is a craftable Hardmode bomb. When used, it throws bombs that are affected by gravity. Upon contact with an enemy, it explodes and launches several fragments that fly in random directions, while also creating 3-5 poison clouds. Collision with a tile will cause the bomb to stick onto the tile for a short period of time, after which, it launches the fragments. The shrapnel will stick to all tiles and enemies and will explode after a short delay. The poison clouds deal 75% of the bomb's damage and the shrapnel deals 100% of the bomb's damage. The bombs, spikes, and clouds inflict the Acid Venom debuff.

Performing a stealth strike with the Ballistic Poison Bomb will cause the bomb to explode into 8-12 poison clouds that inflict Acid Venom for a longer duration.

Its best modifier is Flawless.

Notes

• The poison clouds deal typeless damage rather than rogue damage. However, boosting the weapon's damage will still increase the damage of the poison clouds.
  • As a result, they cannot inflict critical hits and are unaffected by the Adrenaline Mode and Rage Mode buffs.
• Unlike its predecessor, it only explodes on impact when hitting an enemy. When impacting a tile, it behaves similarly to a Sticky Bomb.
