A Muse Sting


Kill the Wasp Queen


How to get: The Wasp Queen is an optional boss Creature found in the Wasp Nest in the Brawny Boy Bin. The Salt Morning Star, Club of the Mother Demon with Apex Predator, Mint Mace, or other powerful clubs are powerful due to the boss not resisting generic. Mithradatism mutation is highly recommended due to multiple of her attacks inflicting poison.

Creepy Crawler


Kill the Infected Broodmother


How to get: The Infected Broodmother is an extraordinarily strong variant of the Hedge Broodmother boss and by far the hardest boss in the game. The boss fight area will only open after sealing the Haze Canister, otherwise it will be blocked by webbing. Use some heavily upgraded and fast Fresh weapons such as the Widow Dagger, Rusty Spear, or Toenail Scimitar. The latter two come with Infection, which lowers her attack speed. Heavy armor like the Roly Poly Armor is recommended due to her heavy damage. A Shield Solidifier is a good trinket to this, when coupled with a shield and Roly Poly Armor to make perfect blocking less important. A Fungal Charm is a great trinket to reduce the explosive damage from her attacks.
Royal Arrangements


Deal with all of the Ant Queens


How to get: There are three Ant Queens — Red, Black, and Fire — and you’ll need to deal with them by feeding them.

Each Queen has a favorite food:
Red Ant Queen – Mushroom Sandwich
Black Ant Queen – Gum Sandwich
Fire Ant Queen – Toejam Sandwich

You can give them one of three food types: juicy, poison, or infected — and each leads to a different outcome:

Juicy food:
The Queen will be friendly and give you a baby ant as a pet. If you lose it, no worries — you can ask her for another one. Worker ants stay chill with you.

Poison food:
She won’t be happy — get ready to fight. If you win, you’ll get an Ant Queen part and a unique armor recipe. But the worker ants will turn hostile and might start attacking you.

Infected food:
Similar to the poison option — you’ll still fight her — but after the battle, you’ll get a message: “You sense a ripple in an alternate dimension.”
This means your choice affects New Game+. That Queen and her ants will be Infected in the next game cycle — but don’t worry, it’ll reset after another New Game+.
Did I Do That?

Baby Ant Cards, Gold Cards, and Dimensional Anomalies not required, if you sure you peeped them all then you can check cross-play, the problem might hide there)

You used to need the gold cards, but now you don't need them for 100%. Unless you don't have trapper peeper yet, which to my knowledge is 20 gold cards.
Juuls ♚ 23 Jun @ 11:38am 
Do you need the gold cards for the 100%? I do have every creature peeped
