“Coznix's otherwordly energy overflows... The void hungers!
— Soul of the Void
Coznix, The Fallen Beholder is a Hardmode boss that can be fought after acquiring some Soul of Light and Soul of Night. Basic Hardmode equipment is recommended, as the Fallen Beholders attacks can be very punishing.

Spawn[edit | edit source]
The Fallen Beholder does not spawn on its own, and requires the player to summon it with a Void Lens while in The Underworld.
Behavior[edit | edit source]
The Fallen Beholder will fly in the air and occasionally lunge at the player, dealing high contact damage. As Coznix does this, he will barrage the player with a variety of magical attacks.
Attacks[edit | edit source]
- Will shoot out a slow moving, but powerful, eradication beam at the chosen player.
- Once below 80% life, will unleash a large spread pulse of dark magic that deals no damage, but heavily debuffs the hit player.
- Will summon slow moving void gates that shoot powerful laser beams directly beneath them after losing 65% life. The lasers cannot pass through blocks.
In Expert Mode
- All laser attacks will leave a highly damaging burn on the hit player.
- Upon reaching 0 life, the Soul of the Void will be released. As well as ramming into the player more often, the Soul will unleash eradication beams and void gates far more quickly.
