Areus Arrows are among many craftable Pre-Hardmode weapons, as Bullets, made from Areus Shards. They split into 6 weaker Areus Arrows at the location of the cursor when the weapon they are used with is fired. Some time after the split, the arrows will begin to home in on nearby enemies. Like most areus weapons, they inflict Electric Shock for 10 seconds.
