The Tidal Construct is a Pre-Hardmode Enemy that spawns anywhere in the Ocean. It slowly swims through the air with its four tentacles, occasionally stopping in place, bringing its tentacles in front of it self and shooting out a slow Tidal beam that follows the player and leaves a damaging trail after it, the projectile and trail disappear after seven seconds and the construct begins moving again.

Killing it will summon a Tidal Spirit.

You can summon the Tidal construct by using an Electromagnetic Lure in the ocean.

Notes

• Being near a Tidal Construct gives the player the Intimidating Presence debuff that lowers enemy spawns and prevents other constructs from spawning.
• If you have the Disruptive Electromagnetic Field Emitter favorited in your inventory or placed on the ground, it will prevent the Tidal construct from spawning.
• The Tidal construct can only spawn once you have 120 health or more.
  • It can still be summoned with an Electromagnetic lure even if you have less than 120 health.

Tips

• The Tidal constructs' attacks can rapidly hurt the construct - killing it almost instantly. Meaning - luring the projectile into the construct is an effective strategy to fight it.
