The Floaty Gross is a floating Hardmode enemy that spawns in the Underground Crimson. It can float through blocks in a manner similar to Wraiths and has a 1/25 (4%) to inflict the Weak debuff for 2 / 4 / 5 minutes upon contact with the player. Because of its low knockback resistance and ability to pass through walls, weapons with high knockback will be more effective against it in the narrow crevices of the Underground Crimson.

Notes

This content is transcluded from NPC spawning/special rules.

  • The Floaty Gross has special spawning restrictions. It can only spawn if all of the following conditions are fulfilled:
    • No town NPCs are present nearby.
    • The player is not standing in front of a safe background wall.
    • In the last 5 seconds, the player has either used an item or has moved.[1]
All of these restrictions are suspended when the player is within range of a Shadow Candle.

Trivia

  • The BestiaryBestiary entry for the Floaty Gross: "These buoyant terrors of the darkest crimson depths most definitely, without question, are both floaty and gross."
