How to fight it
How it appears
- Summon item:
Celestial Sigil. Use it in Hardmode after Golem, with no enemies near. A countdown of 720 ticks follows. - Without an item: It comes 3,600 ticks after the last of the four celestial pillars dies.
What beating it changes
- The Lunar Events end.
- On the first defeat the credits roll.
- Pillar shields are half as strong in later Lunar Events.
- Lantern Nights can start by themselves (1 in 14 nights when off cooldown).
