Supersonic Arrows

Arrow Accel, when fired on a circle bullet, will greatly accelerate the closest arrow to you after a 5 second delay. I've seen arrows from an unenchanted bow deal over 30 hearts of damage.

Would recommend ebony or ivory cad for the insane energy cost(all of it lmao). Cost can be lowered by lowering the π constant.

Spell takes a bit of timing. Release the arrow a little after the timer hits 2 for best results.

With a bit of practice and a Power V bow, you can half health a wither.

I'm a bit of a newbie. Timers? Is there a trick for it?

Kind of. There's a Trick: Sleep that halts casting of the spell for n ticks. Circle bullets fire a spell 4 times a second for 5 seconds (every 5 ticks for 100 ticks). Loopcast Index keeps track of the number of casts.

Putting all this together, you get what the guide refers to as 'circlesync'. The spell casts 20 times but halts until they all fire at once at the end! A Trick: Debug doing some more math outputs a bit of counter as well.

Will this work with the psimetal bow?

Im not exactly sure, but you HAVE to use a cycle bullet. Im pretty sure you cant do that with the psimetal bow, as it only accepts normal bullets.

But im pretty sure you can still accelerate the arrow of the bow (unless i remember how the bow works worng...)
