Hel fires homing soul fireballs at all players in range. These projectiles track their targets.

Dark skulls that apply the Wither effect on hit.
### Sculk Tentacles
A telegraphed ground attack - watch for purple particles and MOVE! Deals heavy damage if caught.
### Summon Hel Clones
Hel summons spectral copies of herself that also cast spells. Kill them quickly!

In later phases, Hel calls down meteors from the sky.
### Anti-Flying Mechanic
