"An otherworldly being that might just make you think you're going crazy..."

The Aquatic Hallucination is a Hardmode post-Plantera enemy that spawns in the Aquatic Depths. It swims quickly toward the player when in water to deal contact damage and inflicts the Blackout debuff, but will flop around aimlessly on land. Killing one will drop an Abyssal Shadow that inflicts the player with False Presence, a debuff which stacks up to three times. On the third stack, Forgotten One will emerge.

Tips

• Care should be taken that the player does not accidentally summon Forgotten One. An unaware or unprepared player might be swiftly killed by the boss.
• Aquatic Hallucinations are slightly transparent making them harder to see than other aquatic dwellers in the biome, a hunter potion is advised if avoiding them is a must.

Notes

• It behaves similarly to the Creature from the Deep which spawns during a Solar Eclipse.
