In previous versions of the mod, Eidolists used to spawn in the Dungeon as well as in the Abyss in Pre-Hardmode.Its design used to resemble an old sprite of the Eidolon Wyrm, which was heavily based off of the Ghost Leviathan from the aquatic exploration game, Subnautica.Judging by their appearance and behavior, they seem to be a Cultist partially transformed into an Eidolon Wyrm.Only one Eidolist can be alive at once.To get ectoplasm, you will need to find and kill enemies called dungeon spirits that are found wandering the vast dungeon biome underground. For this reason, true melee weapons are extremely effective against this enemy. Ectoplasm is required to make a number of items in Terraria, so heres where exactly you can locate and get it in the game.Eidolists do not deal contact damage which opens them up for more aggressive players who struggle to close distance without suffering heavy hits of damage.The lightning inflicts the Electrified debuff for 2 seconds, and the ice ball and ice shards inflict Frozen for 1.5 seconds and Chilled for 3 seconds. Both attacks are very similar to those of the Lunatic Cultist. Once provoked, they will release lightning orbs and ice balls that emit ice shards. Along with this, both the creature and its biome only spawn in Hard Mode, so we highly suggest bringing your best weapons and armor when you go farmingyou don't know what else could be down there. The Eidolist is a Hardmode enemy that appears in the 3rd layer of the Abyss and are also summoned by the adult Eidolon Wyrm during its first four phases.Įidolists will stay in one place until they are damaged, in which they will attempt to fly towards the player, going through blocks and teleporting periodically. To get ectoplasm, you will need to find and kill enemies called dungeon spirits that are found wandering the vast dungeon biome underground.
