Wharf Wayfinder is a skeleton miniboss in The Airship that fights with a Bow. It can mark out an arena, fire a dangerous cone of gold nuggets, and send homing arrows after nearby players.
When the Wayfinder draws a border, treat it as part of the fight. The edges punish anyone who tries to wander out.

Stay off the marked arena border, where the Wayfinder can inflict extreme Slowness and Blindness. Watch for smoke showing where the gold shotgun is aimed, then sidestep before the blast; its arrows can track players nearby.
