A predatory plant, possessed of motility and a rudimentary intelligence. It stalks its prey swiftly, creating sudden profusions of spiny brambles with which to ensnare them and then skewering the trapped creatures with accurate volleys of its own razor-sharp thorns.

Useful Info

Thorn hunters are swift-moving plants able to fire volleys of sharp thorns at their targets and raise briar patch barricades to keep you out of melee or cut off your retreat. Modestly dangerous on their own, they can prove deadly when coupled with the other beasts of the woods. They can be found in the Enchanted Forest.

Spells

Tips & Tricks

  • Fire damage is particularly effective against them.
  • The briar patches will disintegrate on their own shortly after the thorn hunter dies. Don't bother tearing them down unless you have to.

History

Thorn hunters will be added in 0.13.
