Tips and Tricks
- Avoid defeating the Lunatic Cultist if you are not yet ready for the Lunar Events. Beating the Lunatic Cultist causes the Lunar Events to begin immediately, and there is no way to de-summon them thereafter.
- The real Cultist is the only one with a health meter.
- The real Cultist has a sharp triangle-shaped eye, while the clones have round eyes.
- The real Lunatic Cultist has a line on its hood while the fakes don't.
- Most minions and homing weapons will only attack the real Cultist.
- The real Cultist does not emit light, while the decoys do; however this may only be apparent if fought at night.
- The decoy Cultists are named "Luantic Cultist" instead of "Lunatic Cultist".
- Attacking a decoy Cultist is not a bad idea if you have the Vampire Knives. The resulting Phantasm Dragon is very long, and may be easily targeted to restore some life.
