How it fights

Every 4.5 seconds, if you are within 6 blocks, it slams the ground: full damage to everything within 4 blocks, thrown into the air.

  • Elites drop their common loot every time and give 5 souls to the player who lands the killing blow.
  • Nesting: when it dies it opens and releases two smaller copies with 40% of its health, 60% of its size and 30% more speed. The copies drop nothing.
  • 6 armour, 60% knockback resistance, 20 experience. It notices players up to 32 blocks away.
  • Elites never despawn.

Attacks
