🪰 Dangerous Cave Fly
The Dangerous Cave Fly is a stronger variant of the regular Cave Fly in Stardew Valley. It appears in the Mines after activating the Shrine of Challenge, which becomes available once Mr. Qi’s quest “Danger in the Deep” has been completed. Compared to standard Cave Flies, these enemies are faster, tougher, and deal more damage, often swarming the player in groups.
Like other flying insect monsters, they spawn from larvae that are not killed quickly, making them a frequent threat in dangerous Mines runs.
