===Further assaults===
{{Canon note/comics}}
In a later bid to seek revenge on Twilight, Chrysalis would join her forces to an alliance led by [[Radiant Hope]], with the Changelings joining in an [[Siege of the Crystal Empire|invasion]] of the Crystal Empire. Chrysalis and the others were soon subdued, but then revealed that they had only been a distraction. With the [[Crystal Heart]] stolen, Hope was able to revive [[King Sombra]], who freed Chrysalis and the others for a renewed assault. Chrysalis and Sombra soon joined forces against the arriving Celestia and [[Princess Luna]], and their cooperation allowed Sombra to turn both princesses to stone. However, the two monarchs soon clashed, and when Chrysalis learned of Sombra's intent to release the Umbrum, she and her forces departed.
 
According to one account, Chrysalis later launched her own separate assault on the Crystal Empire, while also sending forces to Canterlot and Ponyville to prevent them from sending aid. Her assault on the Empire was repulsed with help from the [[Wonderbolts]], and Chrysalis then led her forces to Ponyville. The Mane Six and Shining Armor were able to contend with her forces using the [[Armor of Friendship]] and a potion created by [[Princess Amore]]. However, it was only after {{FIM|Spike}} using the potion to temporarily grow to his adult size that Chrysalis and her minions were routed.<ref>[[My Little Pony Annual 2017 (IDW)]]</ref>

===War on Equestria===
Chrysalis and her allies escalated their efforts to sow distrust between {{FIM|Earth Pony|Earth Ponies}}, Unicorns, and {{FIM|Pegasus|Pegasi}}, while Tirek sought out the spell that would allow them to access the bell's magic. Having done so, the three split its magic between them, resulting in all three undergoing transformations, with Chrysalis gaining [[Queen Chrysalis' magical armor|magical armor]] and having various features altered. In their enhanced forms, theythe trio ambushed Grogar as he returned from an expedition, destroying [[Discord's amulet|an amulet]] he had brought back. They then turned the Bewitching Bell's magic against him, and in the process discovered that it was not really Grogar, but Discord. After a failed attempt by Cozy Glow to master his [[Chaos Magicmagic]]-and betray her two partners-the trio returned it to the bell before setting out on their final operation.
 
Chrysalis made her way to the [[School of Friendship]] in [[Ponyville]] to confront Starlight Glimmer, seeking vengeance for her previous loss to the Unicorn. Starlight met Chrysalis and then teleported them both to a frigid mountain range, seeking to keep her away from the school's evacuating students. The pair then engaged in a heated contest, unleashing blasts of magic at each other as they moved about the slopes. Starlight managed to bring an avalanche down on Chrysalis, but the former queen's enhanced power allowed her to escape and stun Starlight in the process. Encasing her fallen foe in a cocoon, Chrysalis eagerly anticipated prolonging Starlight's suffering as they departed.
 
Chrysalis then joined Tirek and Cozy Glow in Canterlot, breaking into the throne room of [[Canterlot Castle]] and quickly overpowering Twilight Sparkle and her allies. They then revealed the extent of their plans to the beleaguered heroes, and prepared to destroy Twilight by combining their powers. However, {{FIM|Rarity}}'s interference freed Twilight, who made her escape as the others held the three villains back as long as they could. Chrysalis and her allies added them to their growing collection of prisoners, which also included Starlight and the [[Pillars of Old Equestria]]. Chrysalis was particularly gratified to enhance their cells-which she evidently produced material for-with the shards of her [[Queen Chrysalis' throne]]|old throne]], which had been used to reinforce the castle's security.
 
At Cozy Glow's suggestion that she be allowed to absorb the magic the villains had captured in the Bewitching Bell again, the trio fell to bickering. Tirek reminded them that they still had no way to control Discord's magic, and thus refused to allow the use of the [[Alicorn Magic]] taken from the Two Sisters. Discord offered to instruct them in exchange for his friends being spared, but used the ruse to break Starlight out of her cell. She swiftly freed the other prisoners, and Chrysalis and her teammates were forced to contend with her, Discord, the Princesses, and the Pillars while Twilight's closer friends made their escape. They soon defeated and reimprisoned them, only to be confronted with a new-or more accurately, very old-dilemma: the [[Windigo]]s.

===Attire===
When she led her army in the [[Siege of Trot]], Queen Chrysalis donned a suit of armor. Made of a bluish-green material resembling Chrysalis' own back, the armor consisted of five pieces: a boot for each of her hooves, and a combination peytral and ridged crupper piece that sat on Chrysalis' back. This piece was connected by a spiked ridge, and clasped around Chrysalis' neck with a yellow jewel for decoration; it left most of Chrysalis' back and sides exposed, allowing her wings full range of movement. The ensemble was completed by a helmet that covered most of Chyrsalis' head, including yellow lenses protecting her eyes, while only her muzzle and horn being left uncovered. A small hole at the back allowed some of Chrysalis' mane to stream out behind her in a [[Ponytail]], and there was also an attachment point for her [[Queen Chrysalis' crown|crown]] and two spikes resembling tusks jutting out on either side of her mouth.
