At first glance, you might mistake this being for an ordinary tree, but its branches sway and creak purposefully, and within the knots and grooves of its ruddy bark can be seen the wizened features of an aged forest protector.

Though it moves with slow deliberateness, its enormous gnarled limbs can match the strength of giants and its bark withstand the bite of battleaxes. A curious buzzing sound seems to follow it as it moves....

Useful Info

Treants are massive forest guardians, large and powerful but slow and vulnerable to fire. Along with their brutal melee attacks, they can spawn killer bees, queen bees, yellow wasps, and red wasps to attack you. Much like the jellies that split off the royal jelly, these insects are permanent, immune to Abjuration, and worth no experience.

Each treant is created with a set number of insects that can appear from it, and these charges are slowly replenished over time once they fall below a certain level. Released insects consider the treant their band leader; even if you kite the treant away from its swarm, the insects will eventually regroup with and accompany it.

Treants can be found in the Enchanted Forest.

Tips & Tricks

  • By the time you reach the Forest, a treant's insect allies should be no match for you. If you lack poison resistance, killing the yellow and red wasps should be a major priority. Otherwise, let them sting away at you and worry about the actual threats nearby (such as the furious maple that's punching you).

History

Treants will be added in 0.13.
