Bacterium Prime is a Pre-HardmodeContagion-themed boss in Exxo Avalon. It is summoned with the Infested Carcass in the Contagion, or by breaking three Snot Orbs that spawn in the Contagion Rings.
Defeating Bacterium Prime and the Bactus Minions it spawns is the only way to obtain Boogers.
Bactus Minions will circle around the boss, while the boss is invulnerable. However, the player is still capable of hitting the boss. Every twelve hits on it will spawn an additional minion.
Once all of them are defeated, the boss will enter it's second phase.
Second Phase
In the second phase, Bacterium Prime will become vulnerable to damage and it will teleport around and start to slowly charge towards the player in a similar vein as the Brain of Cthulhu.
Notes
Note that actually defeating Bacterium Prime is not completely necessary to progress, as the Bactus Minions may drop the needed amount of materials.
As the minions will keep spawning until they are all killed, it is possible to farm large quantities of Boogers if they are allowed to spawn continuously.
