Bombs are explosives which can be purchased from the Demolitionist and Skeleton Merchant for 3 each or obtained from Pots, Chests, Slimes, killing an Undead Miner, or by powering Bomb Statues. They can be used as a mining tool or a weapon, although generally the former. When used, it is thrown a few blocks away from the player and rolls if the terrain allows it. After 3 seconds, it will explode, inflicting 100 points of damage to nearby enemies and destroying multiple blocks around it. The player can also inflict harm to themselves if not careful.

Bombs can destroy almost any block, with some exceptions, which can then be collected. It can also be thrown through one block thick walls, like some other tossables.

Trivia

• In the Tutorial, there is an Chest containing a bomb with Large modifier. This is the only way to legtimately obtain a modified bomb.
  • However, because bombs aren't melee weapons, the modifier "Large" has only aesthetical effect on them.
