Hellfire Arrows are a type of ammunition that creates a small explosion upon impact similar to Grenades, damaging everything in the area (except the player). These arrows can be very useful against tight packs of enemies and worms such as Bone Serpents, as the explosion may damage multiple segments.

Hellfire Arrows cannot be recovered once fired. They have a noticeably higher Velocity than other arrows, meaning that they travel quickly through the air once fired.

They can be found in Shadow Chests and Pots in the The Underworld, crafted at an anvil, or purchased from the Demolitionist for 1  each, once the Wall of Flesh has been defeated.
