Dryad's Blessing

Dryad's Blessing is a buff granted through the Dryad's NPC action. Rather than attacking nearby enemies, the Dryad casts a shield of leaves while enemies are near.
All players and NPCs will gain the following effects while within the range of the Dryad's ability:
* +8 Defense to players and +6 / / Defense to NPCs
* +50% Thorns effect to players (50% damage reflected onto attacker, stackable with Thorns buff only) and +33.33% Thorns effect to NPCs
* +3 Health per second regeneration rate to players and +3.33 Health per second to NPCsNPC HP regeneration is much simpler than player HP regeneration: Town NPCs have a single regen counter which increases at a fixed rate every tick (i.e. 60 times per second) while the NPC is not at max health; once the counter reaches or passes 180, the NPC gains 1 health and the counter resets to zero. The rate at which the counter increases is 1 per tick normally, or 11 per tick with Dryad's Blessing. 
* Visual effect: Green sparkle trail from feet while moving
Enemies are afflicted with the Dryad's Bane debuff, which applies 4 damage per-second to enemies within the Dryad's leaf field. This debuff deals additional damage based on players' progression through the current world; see NPCs#Stat boosts for the specific details of these progression boosts. Additionally, the total progression boost is multiplied by a game mode-specific multiplier: 1.0× / / . So if, for example, the current progression boost is +40% total and the world is in Expert Mode, the Dryad's Bane damage is actually raised by (1.4 × 1.5) = 2.1 = +110%. The final damage rate is rounded down, so e.g. 4 damage per second × 2.7 = 10.8, rounded down to 10.
* With no bosses defeated, the total damage rate is 4 / / .
* With all bosses defeated, the total damage rate is 10 / / .
== Notes ==
* The buff stacks with the Thorns buff, but not with the thorns effect from the Turtle armor set bonus, which overrides it.
* On the , this buff is overridden by the Thorns buff, but it does stack with Cactus armor's set bonus.
* The reflected damage is capped at 1000.
== Trivia ==
* The tooltip of Dryad's Bane is based on the phrase, "The power of Christ compels you!" from the classic film .
