Drops

Milkyway Weaver drops nothing in the game's drop rules.

Celestial serpentine predators circling the stardust pillar

The Milkyway Weaver is a cosmic dragon worm that swoops through the heavens around the Stardust Pillar. Possessing 1,200 life and 10 defense, its radiant starry segments coil through open skies at remarkable speeds. Contact with its swooping jaws deals 80 base damage, making it a threatening aerial hunter for players maintaining flight above the ground.

Targeting the vulnerable glowing tail segment

What makes the Milkyway Weaver uniquely formidable is its impervious body armor. Its head and every intermediate torso segment are immune to all player attacks; only its glowing tail segment takes damage. Players must circle behind the worm or utilize homing attacks like chlorophyte munitions and summoner minions to strike its trailing weak spot. Master mode elevates the cosmic serpent to 3,600 life, punishing errant swings near its tail with 240 damage.

Trivia

  • Only the tail segment of the Milkyway Weaver can take damage; all other segments are impervious.
  • Attacking its armored body segments produces metallic deflected spark visual effects.
