Mourning Wood

Mourning Wood is a Hardmode mini-Boss encountered during the Pumpkin Moon Event. The boss is a living tree form that resembles a jack-o-lantern.

Attacks
Mourning Wood alternates between two attacks:
 * Fires a volley of "Flaming Wood" (flaming spikes) at the player. These pass through blocks.
 * Fires a jet of "Greek Fire" (sparkling flames). These do not pass through blocks. They are affected by gravity and remain on the ground for a while, doing damage to players that touch them.

Tips

 * Pay attention to when a Mourning Wood stops walking. This means it's going to attack.
 * It is advisable to not enter a small room while fighting a Mourning Wood because its "flaming spike" attack can go through walls.
 * Mourning Wood's "Greek Fire" attacks cannot pass through water, therefore submerging Mourning Wood at least halfway up is an easier way to defeat him. Note the "flaming wood" attacks DO pass through water.

Trivia

 * The word Mourning, or grief, fits in well with the Halloween theme as it refers means to grief for those who have died.
