Trivia

• The Chaos Candle is the direct opposite of the Tranquility Candle, which drastically decreases spawn rates.
• Similar to the Water Candle, the player can receive the effects of the candle while holding it.
• The Chaos Candle and its counterpart were implemented based on a community suggestion made by Cei on the mod's Discord server.
• It is possible to stack spawn rate increases with other sources, such as the Water Candle, Battle Potion or Zerg Potion.
  • This can be used to farm more efficiently for rare drops.
