Pro Tip: If you're using Wicker's Tentacles to farm this boss, try to position your 8x8 grid of smashed walls (stone, because good luck keeping hay or wooden walls from burning) so that your summoned tentacles will be within melee range of at least two of the fire pits.

During the fight, Dragonfly will regularly pause at Magma pools to poop out Lavae, which gives Tentacles a chance to start slapping her. It also increases the chance that the Tentacles will finish the fight without you if you're killed in the process.

Other advice: To place smashed walls within her aggro range, equip a Walking Cane and find the maximum range she will chase you out of her arena before giving up. Mark that point with something (Trap, Fire Pit, Torch, whatever). Get her to chase you to that point again, then race back to her spawn point and place/break whatever walls you need before she finishes resetting.

When you aggro her for the first time, run through and past your Tentacle Trap, and quickly tag her with Sleepytime Stories so she loses aggro on you.

Building a decent sized stone walled pen for YOURSELF instead the Lavae may be easier than sealing off every magma pool. Leave a single gap so you can run into your pen when she goes into Lavae mode, and seal off the gap with a stone wall from your inventory. If things go sideways and she re-aggros you, you can always Sleepytime her and smash down one of your walls to get out (and plant another wall once you've reaggro'd her on the Tentacles).

Always bring a Life Amulet.
