Lantern Keeper
This mod adds a new enemy that must be defeated using Chinese lanterns.
Lantern Keeper
Description
The Lantern Keeper is a dangerous enemy tied to a unique lantern mechanic
- When he spawns, two lanterns appear along with him
- He has 25 health points
- Interacting with a lantern deals damage to him:
- First lantern lit → -20 HP
- Second lantern lit → kills him instantly
- He can also be damaged through normal attacks
- If a player starts interacting with a lantern and the Keeper is too far away, he will teleport closer and rush to defend it
- Lighting a lantern takes 10 seconds, so players must find ways to distract or keep him at a distance
Combat
Description
- The Lantern Keeper can throw a poisonous projectile.
- If the projectile hits a player or an enemy directly, it explodes and applies the Poison status.
- The projectile can bounce 0 to 2 times off walls or the ground, and explodes on its final bounce, releasing a cloud of smoke that inflicts Poison to players who touch it.
- The projectile can also be reflected with a shovel if timed correctly. The reflected projectile can hit the Lantern Keeper.
- Poison effects:
- Can affect player and enemies.
- Weakens the target, causing them to take 1.5× more damage from all sources.
- Deals 10 damage over 10 seconds by default (increased to 15 total damage due to the vulnerability effect).
- If the targeted player is poisoned, the Lantern Keeper will continue moving toward them and attempt a direct bite attack, which deals significantly higher damage.
Reward
Description
- Upon defeat, the Poison Dagger drops
- Functions like a regular knife but comes with the Poison Mark addon
Addon Ability (requires Addon Fusion to be installed)
- Projects a ground marker following the player's aim
- Reactivate to confirm the position
- Applies Poison to targets in the area:
- Deals damage over 10 seconds
- Increases damage taken by 1.5×
- Cooldown: 45 seconds
- Can be transferred to any item using the Addon Capsule from the Addon Fusion mod
