PC Chlorophyte Bullet Glitch?

[Realith]

I was fighting the Solar Pillar with full ranger gear, Sniper rifle in hand with chlorophyte bullets. Then proceeded in destroying all mobs but one Corite came behind me and one of those bullets came straight back, shattering me into a million pieces!

Is this normal?

HELP!

Yes, it is normal. Solar pillar has a mob that can reflect projectiles. When I first learned of it in july, I thought it was a bug too.

Specifically, the Selenian ( http://terraria.wiki.gg/Selenian ) reflects projectiles when it curls and flies at you. Very dangerous when using high power projectile weapons, as you found out OP.

Yeah, it's definitely a Selenian and his special attack. It's a bit unfair IMO, because you can't realise he can reflect projectiles.

On my first run I was asking why I kept dying when swarming mobs with my Meowmere. I thought it was a glitch, but it wasn't.
