||
+ | • Clones have less health and damage than the original.<br /> |
||
+ | • A clone will generate a random boss modification for itself, including Cloning.<br /> |
||
+ | • As many Boss Modifications summon monsters or cause the battlefield to become hazardous, destroying the original boss is essential to prevent being overwhelmed.<br /> |
||
+ | • Clones will eventually despawn when out of combat for a long period of time. |

||
+ | |Mushroom Master |
||
+ | |Spawns three mushrooms in the area. After 5 seconds, the mushrooms will turn into [[Mushroom Man|Mushroom Men]]. |
||
| |
| |
||
+ | • Mushrooms are much more fragile than the Mushroom Men they spawn and can be destroyed easily.<br /> |
||
+ | • The Mushroom Men are roughly equivalent to a normal monster of the same world difficulty, meaning they can quickly overwhelm a player if not destroyed.<br /> |
||
+ | • Mushroom Men spawned by this count as monsters for effects that require enemies to be hit or killed to activate. The mushrooms initially spawned do not count. |

| |
| |
||
+ | • Every few seconds Thorns will activate, and any player attacking during this time period will take damage.<br /> |
||
⚫ | |||
+ | • Thorns makes a distinctive static-like sound when it activates, and the aura grows in size significantly. When you hear the sound, stop attacking until the aura returns to normal. |

+ | • Laser appears to replace the wind-up punch that some bosses use (such as [[Fungal King]]s or [[Cactote Warlord]]s), and the boss will play that animation before using Laser.<br /> |
||
⚫ | |||
+ | • Laser is very damaging and should be dodged through or avoided at all costs.<br /> |
||
− | |||
+ | • The laser cannot be aimed upward and can be jumped over fairly easily. Staying airborne when the boss begins to prepare Laser will keep you out of harm's way. |

− | - As [[Candy Barbarian]] the adds provide additional healing when using vanilla swirlwind |
||
+ | | |
||
+ | • There are two types of turrets: a cannon-like turret that fires a fast-moving red projectile, and another dragon-faced turret that "breathes" purple flames.<br /> |
||
+ | • Turrets do not have health, but instead take a certain number of hits to destroy. This number varies by world difficulty.<br /> |
||
+ | • Turrets count as monsters for abilities that require monsters to be hit or killed to activate. |
||

+ | • The totem can be destroyed before the first pulse occurs, thus preventing the totem from having any effect.<br /> |
||
+ | • Enemies can be lured away from the totem to cause them to miss being healed.<br /> |
||
+ | • The totem is ''not'' considered a monster for abilities that require hitting or killing monsters to activate. |
