The Flow Invader is a Hardmode, post-Lunatic Cultist enemy that spawns in the area of the Stardust Pillar during the Lunar Events. When it spawns, three smaller minions will appear one at a time and begin orbiting it. The Flow Invader utilizes these as attacks, sending them as 1-2 high-speed projectiles towards the player. The orbiting minions will reappear over time. The Flow Invader will launch all of its remaining minions at the player upon death.

Tips

  • If the Flow Invader is killed shortly after it spawns, fewer minions will be launched at the player.
  • Trying to kill a Flow Invader somewhat on-screen will give the player enough reaction time to dodge the projectiles.

Trivia

  • The Flow Invader's minions are technically projectiles, with a Projectile ID of 539.
    • The Flow Invader's minions are also present as an unused NPC, having a graphically identical NPC of them named Mini Flow Invader.
  • The BestiaryBestiary entry for the Flow Invader: "A cosmic jellyfish-type creature infused with abundant celestial energies which summons smaller minions to serve as its weaponry."
