Talk:Empress of Light

Quite sure the Empress can be summoned during the day by killing the lacewing. As long as you are in the Hallow, she will spawn. But she hits very very hard if fought during the day.

Similar to the Dungeon Guardian and enraged skeletron prime, attempting to use turtle armor to kill enraged empress results in dealing minimal damage (around 800 from brief testing). Xplodinpinapl64 (talk) 00:01, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

Im not to sure, but the Empress can maybe drop the arkhalis. It seems to be a very low chance though.
 * Arkhalis is part of Arkhalis's set, one of the Developer item sets can be included in any expert-mode Treasure Bag. Equazcion  ( talk ) 23:14, 26 May 2020 (UTC)

A problematic entry in the trivia section
The trivia section currently says that the Empress of Light is a reference to Radiance from Hollow Knight. This is a violation of this wiki's trivia rules, as this reference has never been confirmed by a developer and is far from "undeniable". The Empress looks quite different from the Radiance, being differently coloured, having arms, different-looking wings and a human-like face instead of just two glowing orbs of light. Because of this, somebody should remove the problematic trivia entry. (I can't do it, because the page is currently protected.) 193.210.231.154 13:00, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

True is yes Empress of Light has no resemblance with radiance Only similar connection being Sun Dance attack where she summons 8 beams of light limited range of course and radiance Beam burst.

The coicidence comes from fact if we consider Expert Sun dance she shoots 8 beams in 45° degree angle 3 times every next time rotated clockwise randomly and the hitbox of beam to deal damage is when beam is widest not when growing or fading and empress moving towards player exceptionaly.

Beam burst attack does exact same thing ex. 3 times shooting 45°, Degree Angle, Rotated clockwise everytime.

Thats only connection to radiance the Trivia entry that was there was obviously wrong as whole

So when it comes to Sun Dance it gets Credit to it and many people would agree. So Remember Empress Sun dance = Radiance Beam burst nothing more. Redybird (talk) 00:30, 21 June 2020 (UTC)

Strong damage similar to skeletron prime during day and dungeon guardian.
Prismatic Bolt did 13000 damage to me with nebula armor on during day. WHAT IS HAPPENING (is this a dungeon guardian)? 188.120.87.87 15:00, 11 June 2020 (UTC)

well, if you were to read the page on the wiki, you would know that she gets enraged. Inwader4 (talk) 09:08, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

Multiplayer differences
When playing with a friend in multiplayer, the ethereal lance attack sent out evenly spaced lances all going at the same angle, with enough lances to cover the screen, then repeating in different directions. In singleplayer, the lances all come out at different angles targeted at the player, and can be outrun. I have not seen any coverage of this outside of my own experience Lazercats3 (talk) 02:21, 12 June 2020 (UTC)

Phase 2 sprite change not shown or mentioned on wiki
During the empress's second phase, her sprite noticeably changes. Despite the effort put in to ripping her full non-shader animation for P1, there is no second-phase sprite or infobox on the wiki, unlike all other phased bosses. Is there a reason for this, or am I missing something? Obsidianmolerat (talk) 01:09, 23 July 2020 (UTC)
 * The P1 animation was made by a contributor who only visited this wiki a brief period in May and seemingly didn't get to make a P2 animation. As such, making the latter falls to someone else, and no one has gotten to it yet. Maybe I'll have a go at it myself one of these days unless someone beats me to it. Thanks for pointing it out :-) NoseOfCthulhu (talk) 17:47, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

Achievements
I noticed that the empress is the only boss in the game that doesn't have an achievement. Maybe add a note about that in trivia? I'm unregistered, so I can't edit the page. Thanks!


 * There's also the Queen Slime and Betsy. I'm guessing they'll all get one in 1.4.1. --Eraloiz (talk) 01:58, 4 August 2020 (UTC)
