Elite starites in their final stage of growth can focus their energy into deadly laser beams. You'd be forgiven for thinking the sky was falling!

— Bestiary (Ultra Starite)

Ultra Starites are a pre-Hardmode enemy that only appears during a Glimmer. It starts off in an idle state; however when it gets in sight of the player or takes damage, it will start attempting to attack by moving close towards the player. After a few seconds, it will quickly do an area attack where it quickly extends and retracts its arms. Afterwards, it will begin charging a laser which it will rotate in an almost full circle.

In Classic Mode, it has a 25*1/4 (25%) to inflict On Fire! for 3 seconds, and a 50*1/2 (50%) to inflict Darkness for 30 seconds. In Expert Mode and Master Mode, On Fire! is replaced with Blue Fire, and Darkness is replaced with Blackout, and the chances to inflict debuffs are increased to 100%. In both difficulties, it has a 8.33%/25% chance to inflict inflict Cursed.

Ultra Starites begin spawning 500 tiles (70% Progression) away from the Source of the Glimmer, and there can only be one Ultra Starite alive at any time.
