The Annihilator's probes change tactics and begin to surround the player, trapping them in a barrage of lasers and missiles The Annihilator launches multiple homing missiles at the player, forcing them to dodge constantly The Annihilator begins to burrow underground, periodically emerging to attack the player with surprise surface-to-surface charges The boss hovers around the player while the head and tail shoot out electric traps and then the boss will fire 3 tactical nukes that deals the same damage as the worm's head. The boss will begin to hover around the player while firing a controlled barrage of lasers and then the boss dashes at the player while segments fire missiles. Probes will heal if not damaged for too long. Probes will respawn 45 seconds after they are destroyed The annihilator no longer needs blocks or platforms to burrow through, When all probes are killed it enters phase 2, all the segments regain their probes, and the music changes to boss2 otherworldly It also attempts to surround the player, and if the player is too close to the ground it can usually succeed. It has limited mobility when fully in the air, requiring blocks or platforms to burrow through. The annihilator leaps from the ground and attempts to ram the player. Probes will alternate between staying 10-35 blocks away for the player, firing lasers, and ramming into the player While the annihilator is alive, the music Playing with Firepower will play. They fire lasers at the player, both while within The Annihilator and when detached. Probes can be killed individually once detached, and never return to The Annihilator. If the red light is missing from a segment, it means the Probe was already launched from that segment.īehavior Phase 1 Passive changes The Annihilator is extremely long, measuring 148 segments including head and tailĮach of The Annihilator's segments contains a red-lit Probe, which is an independent flying enemy that is launched periodically as the boss takes damage. This way of spawning is checked at dawn, If spawning this way, its arrival is announced by probes spawning at dawn, and the status message: "You feel earthquakes from deep below." It can also spawn naturally upon dusk with a chance of 10%, as long as it has not yet been defeated in the current world. The Annihilator can be summoned manually using a Titanium worm at night in the cavern layer, though it can be brought anywhere after this. Like other worms, The Annihilator can take increased damage from attacks that damage multiple segments at once. Like the Destroyer, it is a very large worm. The Annihilator is a War mode mechanical boss which is essentially a more difficult version of the Destroyer, as the Destroyer was to the Eater of Worlds.
