About this mod Author’s original text

Adds the unfinished Ancient Wisp boss into the game.

It's an 1000 credit boss (slightly more expensive than Imp Overlords and Magma Worms)

Spawns on Abyssal Depths, Sundered Grove, Sky Meadow, Sulfur Pools (postloop), Reformed Altar, Helminth Hatchery, as well Gilded Coast and Bulwark's Ambry.

Internal bodyname is MoffeinAncientWispBody.

Currently shares the same boss item drop as the Grovetender.

Attacks

Default Attack - Barrage: Shoots a spread of 6 rolling fireballs

Signature Attack - Lightning Pillars: Summons many Lightning Pillars around the players

Utility - Enrage: At 50% HP, enrages and gains increased move speed and attack speed, which boosts the amount of projectiles it shoots.

All players need the mod.

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.

Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
