Polarities Mod/Chimera

Not to be confused with the Crimera, a vanilla crimson enemy.

Chimeras are a Hardmode crimson-based enemy that appear during. They alternate between three distinct movement patterns, alternating every few seconds and firing spreads of three terrain-piercing projectiles with a swing of their claws all the while; they may float from side to side above the player, float level with the player in an attempt to inflict contact damage, or attempt to hover directly above them with little horizontal movement while slashing faster than usual. As a result of their varied attack patterns, dodging their high damage efficiently requires the player to pay constant attention to what they're doing, potentially leaving them open to attacks from other enemies in the meantime.
