Is the empress of light harder in the day?

Yes, the Empress of Light is significantly harder during the day in Terraria because she enters an "enraged" state with drastically increased damage (often one-shotting players) and a more aggressive pattern, requiring near-perfect dodging and high-end gear to defeat, but rewarding the exclusive Terraprisma if successful. While normally a challenging bullet-hell boss, the daytime version demands extreme precision, making it one of the game's toughest optional fights.
