Mod of Redemption/King Slayer III

"You know what? I don't care if I'm a member of the Heroes! You're dead!"

King Slayer III is a Hardmode fightable after the player defeats all Mechanical Bosses, but is recommended to fight after Plantera.

While King Slayer III is alive, the music will play.

Spawn
Use a at day, after beating. The Summon won't be consumed upon use.

Behavior
Before fighting, he will talk to the player for a bit.

King Slayer starts with 25% damage reduction, and has 50% while in his final phase. If the player gets King Slayer III down to his first shield phase in less than 10 seconds, his damage reduction will increase:

10 seconds: 50% damage reduction, 70% in final phase

5 seconds: 75% damage reduction, 80% in final phase

2 seconds: 85% damage reduction.

Attacks
King Slayer tries to constantly hover to the side of the player. He can fire laser bolts, shoot 3-shot spreads of electric bolts that inflict Electrified, summon orbs to shoot lightning at the player, or charge at them quickly.

At certain HP intervals, he will deploy a shield to defend himself. While King Slayer is shielded, he will summon 4 s that chase the player and shoot a burst of bolts every-so-often. Killing all 4 Space Keepers is needed to bring down the shield.

After shield phases, his attacks will increase in ferocity.


 * After his 1st shield phase, after shooting laser bolts normally, he will begin shooting normal bolts in quick succession. His charges are also faster.


 * After his 2nd shield phase, the 3 lightning bolts will become 5 in an arc instead, and he will shoot faster. He will also begin to use his rocket fist attack, where he shoots a homing fist at the player that explodes and deals heavy damage on impact.


 * When he has put up his 4th and final shield, he will yell a bit, turn red and quickly charge and teleport a little above the player's position so the player can dodge. In this final phase, he will shoot faster, with his rapid fire attack shooting a bolt every 0.1 second and lasting just above 1 second. Afterwards, he will shoot 4 rocket fists and repeat the attack pattern.

If Plantera has not been defeated:


 * "Maybe try again when you're actually strong."
 * "What a pushover..."
 * "Y'know, you don't have to fight me right now... But it is fun beating you."
 * "You should've just gave up when you had the chance."
 * "Why did you try to fight me when you're still so weak? I want an actual challenge y'know!"

If Plantera has been defeated:


 * "Are you seriously that weak!?"
 * "Come on, you can do better than that!"
 * "Hah."
 * "A useless attempt..."

If King Slayer III is on his final phase:


 * "(Thank God)"
 * "HAH YES! Gotta be honest, you almost had me."
 * "You were so close..."
 * "Congratulations... You actually made me worry for a second there!"

Tips

 * It's safer to fly up and down rather than trying to use the good oldé circling-around-the-boss-method.
 * Rod of Discord is good to have.
 * Make sure you have very good wings, are a recommendation.
 * When King Slayer III is charging in his final phase, fall downwards to dodge it, since he will teleport a little above the player.
