Daffodil is a Hardmode boss intended to be fought before Mechanical bosses.

While Daffodil is alive, her exclusive music To A Floral Demise will play.

Spawn

Daffodil can be found sleeping in her arena between Creepy Catacombs and Lower Catacombs. Throwing a Heavy Brick at her will awaken her. If Daffodil has been defeated before, there is a 5% chance that she will say "Nah..." upon awakening and go back to sleep. Otherwise, the fight will begin after a short intro cutscene.

Behavior

Daffodil is a stationary boss that is comprised of three parts: body, eye, and hands. Only the eye can receive damage, with other parts being invincible.

Daffodil will alternate between the following attacks:

• Fires a barrage of Solar Lasers aimed directly at the player.

• Raises her arms, firing Chlorophyll Flowers from them. The Flowers will fly outwards before changing their trajectory and going towards the player.

• Launches 3 bursts of 3 to 5 bouncing Thorn Balls that stop in place and sprout into 6 Thorn Spikes after 3 seconds.

• Summons numerous Large Flies from the left and the right that move horizontally across the arena.

• Drops non-damaging Seeds from above that stick to the ground and sprout into vertical Thorn Pillars after 1.5 seconds.

• Charges up for 2.66 seconds before firing a sweeping Solar Deathbeam across the arena. The Deathbeam cannot pass through tiles and the safe spots in the arena will be marked by a telegraph.

Upon reaching 50% health, Daffodil will temporarily become immune and begin another cutscene. She will cover the floor and walls of the room in damaging Thorn Barriers, forcing the player to continue the fight on platforms present in the arena. She retains all of her previous attacks, with the exception of Solar Deathbeam, and gains 2 new attacks:

• Raises her arms and then punches at the player with both of them.

• Fires a spread of Solar Deathbeams aimed around the player's position. The Deathbeams can go through tiles and their locations are indicated via a telegraph.

Aftermath

• The Suspicious Skeleton will begin selling the Severed Head and The Eighth Page.
• The Angler's quests will now include Swimming Hibiscus.

Quotes

Upon being awoken: "!!!!!!" "Just who do you think you are waking me?!" "......" "Fine, then let's see if you're worthy!" After being defeated at least once: "Ugh, why do you keep waking me?" "Fine, then let's battle again..." Rarely, after being defeated at least once: "Nah..." Upon reaching 50% health: "Alright then, I see how it is..." "Let's see if you're worthy now!" After being defeated at least once: "So you're just as good as before huh..." "Then I am sure you can handle this!" Upon being defeated: "So, you really are powerful..." "Fine, then you may advance into the deeper catacombs" After being defeated at least once: "You are still powerful..." "Not sure why you keep waking me, but whatever"
