The Earth Lord is a War Mode post-Sharpener and pre-Steelera boss.

Earth Lord functions similarly to the Moon Lord, but has an Earth theme. Earth Lord is the final boss of the Earthen Disaster event and is one of the main bosses of War Mode. He is summoned by completing the Earthen Disaster event, by using Earthen Sigil. He has multiple attacks, which deal very high damage to the player. The Earth Lord also summons his minions, such as his eyes. Earth Lord has a similar Al as the Moon Lord, but faster,, murderous, and more powerful. After the completion of the Earthen Disaster event, or the use of the Earthen Sigil the message at the bottom-left corner of the screen will say "The earth begins to split apart...", and the player has 30 seconds to prepare before Earth Lord spawns. During the 30 seconds, the screen will go in and out of focus, exactly how the screen looks before facing the Moon Lord.

Instead of the screen turning completely black while Moon Lord is alive, The screen completely turns into a dark blue tint while Earth Lord is alive. While the Earth Lord is alive, the player is inflicted with Creative Shock for an infinite amount time until the boss or the player is defeated. Attempting to instakill one of Earth Lord's parts by using a butcher function from Cheat Sheet Mod or by using a weapon that deals enough damage to at least two-shot Earth Lord at full HP will cause nothing to happen.

When defeated, Earth Lord will drop special items, and he will always drop the 3 guaranteed items, such as the Portal Gun, The Death Rose, and some Earthenite, along with one of the guaranteed nine (9) drops and a joke item. The message will also appear in the chat on the screen saying "The enemy souls are possessed by ethereal spirits...". This means that Post-Earth Lord enemies and bosses are now unlocked.

If all players die during the battle, Earth Lord guarantees a despawn. It can be simply re-summoned by completing the Earthen Disaster events again or by using the Earthen Sigil. Note that the Earthen Sigil item is always reusable, so Earth Lord may be summoned any number of times. It can also be summoned by using NPC spawners too. Earth Lord is also easily farmable. To farm the Earth Lord, the player must build a flat and safe arena with Water Candles and any other item that increases enemy spawn rate.

The player should definitely be very well equipped both physically and mentally before taking him on. Note that the player should always need all pre - Earth Lord buff potions too.

  • Earth Lord looks similar to Moon Lord, but with a brown tint and green instead of blue.
  • He has 2 hands, 5 eyes, a mouth, 2 portals above his hands, and a heart (core).

  • Earth Lord's attack pattern style is similar to Moon Lord's attack pattern.
  • Due to its large amount of attacks, the high HP, high-dmg attacks, strength, speed, Al, amount, power, and difficulty, Earth Lord gets a bad reputation within the Terraria Fan Ideas wiki. However, it is also one of the most iconic bosses.

Summons[]

Expert-Exclusive Drops[]

For normal drops, look at the Earth Lord's infobox.

Behavior[]

Earth Lord is a large spike in difficulty compared to surrounding bosses. Earth Lord has 4 additional attacks, which is shooting Earth Lasers, Phantom Disintegration Bolts, Eye Phantoms, and Healing Leech Clots, which are hard to dodge. When he is first spawned, all of his eyes are open. After 1 second when he is first spawned, He immediately closes them. He is able to use all of his attacks in his arsenal. Most of his attacks are very hard to dodge and outrun. As Earth Lord's HP drops low every time, Earth Lord gets angrier a little bit. The additional parts that he has now are 2 extra eyes on his head and 2 obvious portals above his hands that are vulnerable to all types of damage. When the portals are defeated, they are invulnerable for 25 / 20 seconds. After the 25 / 20 seconds have passed, the portals regenerate full health back and they now become vulnerable to all types of weapons. The portals summon their own respective minions. The only way to defeat Earth Lord is players to get equipped very well and build a safe and careful arena. The player also needs buff potions too, because Earth Lord is really insane, powerful, and challenging.

Behaviour (Hands and Head)[]

The hand eyes take six (6) seconds to open, the head eyes take eighteen (18) seconds to open. When the head eyes and/or the hand eyes open, the eyes shoot Earth Lasers. they deal 560 damage (780 in Expert Mode). The lasers also have a 0.01% chance of dealing 1000 damage. When the middle head eye opens, Earth Lord will shoot an Earthen Deathray that sweeps towards the ground (darkgreen version of Phantasmal Deathray shot by Moon Lord), dealing incredibly high damage, leading to guaranteed death. If touched, it will instantly kill players, with the special death message that appears in the chat at the bottom-left corner of the screen saying "[Player] got terminated." When the hand eye(s) and the head eye(s) are defeated, the hand(s) and the head becomes a thorny crevice and the eye(s) will come out. which are True Earth Eyes. The hands also have 2 portals above him. These portals summon their own minions respectively. The minions summoned by the portal(s) don't home the player unless the world is in Expert Mode. The portals are immune to damage when they reach 0 Heart HP for 25 / 20 seconds.

Behaviour (True Earth Eye)[]

The True Earth Eye(s) also shoot projectiles and periodically summon minions, such as Earthen Spheres (phantom versions of True Earth Eye(s). When the Earthen Spheres are all in line, They simply manage to summon Eye Phantoms (dark blue versions of Earthen Sphere(s) that attempt to home the player. The Eye Phantoms home on the player for 6 / 12 seconds before they fade away. They are invulnerable enemies. True Earth Eyes are also capable of shooting out a miniature version of the Earthen Deathray that sweeps towards the ground all the way to the air, which is called Earthen Deathray Mini. The Eye Phantoms sporadically shoot Phantom Disintegration Bolts, while the Earthen Spheres, True Earth Eyes, and the other minions or Earth Lord itself shoot Earthen Bolts. Note that some of the attacks always stay in one position and hit the ground (or even go through solid blocks) True Earth Eyes can also spam Earth Lasers too. The eyes do not function in Multiplayer.

Behaviour (The Tentacle and the Earth Leech Clots)[]

He also shoots out a tentacle. The tentacle inflicts the Earth Bite debuff if touched. The Earth Bite debuff prevents the player from regenerating through lifesteal effects and the consumption of healing items. The Earth Bite debuff lasts for fifteen (15) / thirty (30) seconds. Throughout the entire fight, the Earth Lord will regularly extend a "tentacle" that latches onto nearby players. It will then drain the player's life (the player does not lose health from this) in the form of green particles (Earth Leech Clots) that travel along the tentacle. The particles are destructible and if a particle successfully reaches the Earth Lord, one of its body parts (any that have not been defeated yet) will regain 10000 Heart / 20000 Heart. The Earth Lord will drain three (3) particles before stopping occasionally. The tentacle will not go through blocks, and the mouth is always positioned above the player so that it can extend the tentacle, even resorting to being directly behind the player if they are in a 2 by 3 space. If there are no blocks above the player, the mouth will always attempt to be about 10-20 blocks above them. The particles do not attack the player at all, unless in Expert Mode. Upon destruction, the Earth Leech Clots explode into 4 Earth Lasers that make a + shape.

Behaviour (Healing Leech Clots)[]

Behaviour (Parts and Life Regeneration)[]

If one of Earth Lord's parts are below 50% life are not damaged for 5 seconds, One of its parts will regenerate 2500 Heart / 5000 Heart HP back every second. When the hand eyes and the head eyes are progressively defeated, the mouth becomes vulnerable to all weapons. When the mouth is defeated, The core becomes finally vulnerable to all weapons. When the core is defeated, Earth Lord is entirely defeated. Earth Lord has the same death sound and animation as Moon Lord. In Expert Mode, When the core's health drops to 0 the first time, Earth Lord will regenerate 1000000 Heart back and the fight will stay on until he is defeated. When the core's health drops to 0 the second time, Earth Lord is entirely defeated, Earth Lord dies in a same way as Moon Lord, and the message will appear in the chat saying "The enemy souls are are possessed by ethereal spirits...".

In Expert Mode[]

  • Earth Lord is a little bit faster and uses attacks more aggresively.
  • The hit counter for the player's attacks is lowered to 250 hits. The hit counter for how many hits the player can take is reduced to 25.
  • HP increased greatly.
  • Defense increased to 1370 in total (Total defense of eyes, hands, a mouth, and a core).
  • Earth Leech Clots now deal 150 damage to the player.
  • Earth Lord's opponents now deal double/triple the damage.
  • Earth Lasers now travel through blocks and deal 780 damage.
  • The Earthen Deathray is now fired at two (2) directions. The second deathray is slower.
  • Earthen Eyes now explode into fifteen (15) Eye Phantoms.
  • Minions that are summoned by the portal can now home the player until they are defeated.
  • The 3 central top head eyes will shoot 3 lasers at the same time.
  • If one of Earth Lord's parts that are below 75% life are not damaged for 5 seconds, One of its parts will absolutely regenerate 5000 Heart back every second.
  • True Earth Eyes can now shoot more lasers and projectiles.
  • Earth Lord will now shoot two (2) tentacles between the teeth.
  • When the core's health drops to zero (0), The core will regenerate 1000000 Heart back and a special exclusive quote will appear in the chat saying "The god of the earth begins to regenerate!". When the core's health drops to 0 the second time, Earth Lord is entirely defeated.

Spawn[]

  • Earth Lord spawns in the same way as Moon Lord. When the Earthen Disaster event is completed, or the Earthen Sigil item is used, or after 100000 enemies are killed, Earth Lord spawns in 30 seconds, and the screen will blur just like the Pre-Moon Lord screen.
  • After the 30 seconds have passed, the screen will slowly flash into a faint white background, same as Moon Lord's white flash, and then, the entire background will turn dark blue whilst Earth Lord is alive.

Notes & Tips[]

  • To defeat and outrun Earth Lord, You must first attack the two (2) portals, the head (3 head eyes) go next, the hand eyes go second, the teeth goes third, and finally, the core goes fifth and last. When the core is finally defeated, Like Moon Lord, Earth Lord will die in a same way as Moon Lord and will then explode into a pile of bones, After Earth Lord is defeated, The fight will end, and will reward the player with special loot, Then a quote pops up from the screen saying "The enemy souls are possessed by ethereal spirits...".
  • You should have a Nurse directly to your spawn point, so you can quickly get instant healing and avoid some of his attacks. Note that the Rod of Discord is a good alternative for teleporting to the Nurse and dodging enough of his attacks, but be wary of the Chaos State debuff. However, The taken life from the Chaos State debuff does not count as a hit. If you drop to low health, rinse and repeat that step multiple times.
  • You should have a flat arena with a solid roof/ceiling on the top somewhat near your spawn point, the ceiling somewhat protects the player from Earth Lord's types of lasers and deathrays that deal high damage. The ceiling stops one of Earth Lord's deathrays from sweeping to the player for high damage. Asphalt Blocks are also a great alternative for the arena.
  • The safest way to defeat the Earth Lord is to make a ceiling on top of the arena with some platforms and make sure your arena does not have traps. But, be wary of his Earthen Deathray, because the Deathray leads to guaranteed death, dealing 9999 / 19998 / {{{1}}} damage. Try not to go too far or fast, or otherwise Earth Lord will guarantee to teleport. In fact, Earth Lord will NEVER despawn unless the player dies or the world is in Expert Mode.
  • You arena needs to be safe enough by placing alot of platforms, blocks, making a solid ceiling, having a Nurse, placing Teleporters, and flattening the ground. Honey will slow the player's movement if not careful.
  • The Grassy Vileshard is very effective against the Earth Lord, due to the weapon that manages to go through blocks and dealing immense damage. Disastrous Pitchforks are also used for defeating all of his parts which deal enough damage.
    • There is also another high-damage pre-Earth Lord weapon that deals 578 damage, which is the Multiverse Rage. Note that the sword's projectiles can go through blocks.
  • You may need a Magic/Ice Mirror, or a Cell Phone, or a large supply of Recall Potions, and you also need a Rod of Discord, or a large supply of Teleportation Potions for healing or emergency cases.
  • The player's life amount should have at least between 900-1400 Heart HP.
  • Travelling to another realm when Earth Lord is alive causes Earth Lord to enrage more and his stats will be severely, extremely buffed. Earth Lord's total defense will be buffed to 99999 and all of his attacks will deal 99999 damage if the player is in another realm. Those stats can become nearly impossible.
  • Also, Earth Lord has 2 alternate portals above his hands. Earth Lord summons his own minions anyhow, so be extremely careful.
  • Attempting to instantly kill one of Earth Lord's parts with an absolutely overpowered weapon or something that deals infinite damage, Earth Lord will only take 0 or 1 damage (2 for critical hits) instead, with a special quote appearing in the chat on screen saying "But nothing happened!".
  • The player is guaranteed one of the nine (9) drops. 3 for magic, 2 for melee, 2 for ranged, 1 for summoner, and 1 for throwing classes.
  • If you are intended to use the 666 Potion and the 666 debuff is active, all of Earth Lord's attacks and defense are multiplied by 666 and they can instakill the player (Post-Earth Lord). Note that all of Earth Lord's total defense will be severely buffed to 622710 / 1245420 in total, making Earth Lord take only 0 or 1, or 2 for critical hits instead, much like the Dungeon Guardian.

Facts, Trivia, and Stuff[]

  • According to the lore, Earth Lord is the deity of the planet itself, but is somewhat supposed to resemble a God or an Incarnation of Space.
    • The Earth Lord might resemble a giant humanoid because he has hands, arms, and a body that resembles a human as such.
  • Based on the dark colour and its extra parts (preferably the lore), Earth Lord seems to be related to Moon Lord
    • Earth Lord can also be known as Earthlord, EL (Earth Lord's initial), or Godly Fate.
    • Earth Lord could also be known as "Unseen incarnation of Lord" itself.
  • The colours of Earth Lord represent: Green represents the grass/leaves of trees while brown represents the dirt/clay.
    • The said colours are a reference to the jungle or the purity.
  • On Reddit, there is a post that contains a sprite of Earth Lord, but the Reddit user never credited the original creator.
    • There was also 2 users on Reddit that have avatars of the Earth Lord sprite.
  • In previous versions, Like Moon Lord, Earth Lord did not drop any coins at all, but now Earth Lord DOES drop any coins, like other bosses.
  • Earth Lord also drops the Portal Gun too, just like the Moon Lord that drops the exact same item.
  • The 9 item's drop chance "6.66%" is likely a reference to 666, which is the Number of the Beast (could be referred to 616).
    • If it was flipped and inverted to 66.6% It would be the same reference. If it was 66.66%, then it would be a reference to 6666.
  • Oddly, due to Earth Lord spawning 30 seconds after the Earthen Disaster event is finished, Earth Lord still counts as an event enemy, because Earth Lord is presumably the final boss of the Earthen Disaster event.
  • The sprite is a recolour of Moon Lord, but has 2 extra eyes and 2 portals.

Lore & Origin[]

The Earth Lord is the great master of the Earth and he is also the great, ancient father of Moon Lord. The Earth Lord always protects his two sons from ravagers attacking them and he also roams the Earth by going through and detecting comets, meteors, and fallen stars from brutal destruction of the planet. But one day, The Earth Lord sent out his son, Moon Lord, to give revenge on the grand hero for destroying the celestial beings and structures, but the revenge failed and Earth Lord is very angry about the defeat of Moon Lord and then the Earth Lord himself wants to end the grand hero for defeating his own son. A long triennium ago, The nasty unseen spiritual incarnation had sobered up the Earth Lord so he can get a heavy curse from the spirit. He eventually had portals generating over his two hands so he can be incredibly tough and powerful beast. The godfather of the Earth Lord refers to himself to try to make the multiverse and the regiment of the space even better. Earth Lord had existed for 4.9 billion years! Cthulhu and the Earth Lord both want revenge on the grand hero, but it would all fail, due to the grand hero's bravery and legendariness, compared to the power. Due to how the angriness of the reincarnated Earth Lord is, Earth Lord always had his own father. Neptune Lord and the Earth Lord decided to join the statement about ending the legendary grand hero similar to how it works, but the plan would tremble and collapse into planetary chaos. A few millennia ago, Earth Lord snuck up one of his plans in outer space trying to make the embodiment of Cthulhu li'sfe happy and calm, but that was a long time ago. When the Earth was formed, Earth Lord's father never forgets how mischievous and naughty Earth Lord was. After they plotted about his dreams, Earth Lord decided to become the great, forgotten beast of all time. One day, a mischievous and indestructible comet tempered the Earth Lord and he became an any and the least-to-most destructive beast and the universe would believe in Earth Lord because he uses his true powers to protect the planet, but instead, The Neptune Lord had to take Moon Lord to Earth Lord for his power exams, number of attacks, life, care, and strength. If it wasn't for the Earth Lord and his two sons, The embodiment of Cthulhu's life would have been extinct long ago.
