The Conductor is a Post-Golem boss the spawns in, and the first boss added to the mod. While not vital to progression at the moment, he can serve as a good test to see if you're ready for the Lunatic Cultist and Lunar Events.

AI
The AI of The Conductor is entirely custom, and meant to somewhat mimic the Lunatic Cultist's AI: Immediately upon spawning, The Conductor will rush towards some heading around (in a rectangle) the player for 5/12 of a second, before stopping for 4 and 1/6 seconds and performing one of 3 different attacks after a delay of 2/3 of a second.

The Conductor will fire a volley of 20 high-damage Maniac Notes directly at the player, at high speed. While these are easy to avoid, they can quickly dispatch a play who isn't prepared for them.

Attack 2
The Conductor will fire 3 volleys of 3, evenly-spread Green Stars towards the player at low speed. After 2 and 5/6 seconds, each of these Stars will explode into Green Shards, which fly off in the cardinal directions at high speed.

Attack 3
