NPCs & Enemies Empress of Light During Eclipse

[FieryFork]

The Empress of light should not drop the Terraprisma nor deal the player 1 hit damage during an Eclipse.

So you want a 1/20 chance to get an extra 15 minutes to fight her normally, which could also ruin Terraprisma attempts. What does this really add?

Logic, but that shouldn't be prioritized over gameplay.

Realism... regarding a magical fairy empress that gains power when the sun is out, not gaining power while the sun is out lol

Actually this post is probably more logic than realism.

Would be a great attention to detail, I like it!

On the one hand, that's true. On the other hand, it could ruin EoL attempts. On my third hand (which was gotten from a mutation), that would probably be unlikely.

Honestly with all the enemies, you’re screwed either way if you’re fighting her during an Eclipse. I think this suggestion could be neat.

Getting a Terraprisma requires you to do  all the damage during the day, so you'd have to actually start it during the eclipse for it to be "ruined," which is an absolutely crazy thing to do; if anything, this might give you some extra time to fight her if the battle goes on for a bit too long, with the caveat that now you have to deal with some solar eclipse enemies. This change only makes things more forgiving. I can't think of anything that would be lost if this was changed, and the attention to detail would be great.

Would she still fly faster though?

The idea is that since the moon is blocking the light from the sun, she doesn't have her full power and the fight is exactly like it is at nighttime.

Ok

On one hand, this is cool. On the other, an evil part of me is sad it's not buffing her to ridiculous proportions for a dark terraprisma that has a rainbow outline or something

As someone who has asked for extensions on assignments more times than I can remember, a 5% chance for an extension on an otherwise doomed nighttime Empress fight would be much appreciated. The straight-A students going for their perfectionist trophy can do it during the other 95% of daytime hours

Fair enough. I support this suggestion fully now.
