Venom Arrows are post-Plantera arrows used as ammunition for bows and repeaters. They have the highest base damage of any arrow (
tied with Cursed Arrows), and they inflict the Venom debuff upon hitting an enemy. Unlike many other types of arrows, Venom Arrows always break after impact and are irrecoverable.
Of all the Hardmode arrows, they are the easiest to craft, as their ingredients can both be bought from NPCs: they require only Wooden Arrows (5*5 each, bought from the Merchant) and a Vial of Venom (1000*10 
each, bought from the Witch Doctor), totaling 1175*11 75 for 35 Venom Arrows (approximately 34*34 per arrow), or 33538*3 
35 38 for a full stack of 999 Venom Arrows.

Tips[edit | edit source]
- Despite the high damage and the debuff of Venom Arrows, there are other arrows that can technically deal more DPS, such as the echoing ability of Luminite Arrows, Holy Arrows' stars or the defense-reducing ability of Ichor Arrows.
