Events

**Events** (also known as **Invasions**) are temporary occasions where varieties of special enemies spawn, most at elevated spawn rates, even near NPCs, and attack players. Some events can occur randomly during gameplay, while others can be triggered via certain summoning items or special circumstances. Events spawn their own unique enemies not seen during ordinary gameplay, which can, in turn, drop unique items that are obtainable within the event. Some events also bring unique visuals and a unique atmosphere, such as an altered Moon and noticeable shaders applied to the screen.

Most events in the Spectra Mod are somewhat considered to be much more difficult than those of vanilla Terraria, possessing a great challenge, even to experienced or unprepared players, bringing more enemies, and giving a unique theme.

In Professional Mode, some events drop their own respective item that only applies to the said mode, varying on which item the miniboss drops.

Additionally, most events in the Spectra Mod have their own respective minibosses, which can be harder than ordinary vanilla minibosses, That being said, most vanilla events in Spectra Mod even have more new mod-exclusive additional enemies, and minibosses, that can be challenged throughout the whole entire event.
