Boss Effects is a debuff that is active while any boss is alive and within a 400-tile radius around the player. It functions as a stronger version of the Zen buff, reducing spawn rates by 80% and maximum spawn count by 99.9%, in order to ensure that the boss fight has no interference from unrelated enemies.

Notes

• Despite technically being a boss, the Martian Saucer does not activate this debuff. This is to prevent it from interfering with the rest of the Martian Madness event.
• The debuff will not be applied for bosses from other mods.
