  • This twin can change side where one is aggroing while the dormant one accomodate them during battle.They can change side by themselves or when player deal so much damage to aggro one.
  • Player can attack the dormant head in order to give the aggro one a disadvantage during battle.

Fight with directional attack that boosted by a beam jet from the other head.

Disabling the other head will make them very slow and change their attack method to regular mc mob melee attack.

Boss :

1. Ghidruth, the Stone Shark
a shark with very hard skin like a stone.
currently very wip, so attack patterns are incompleted.



mechanic :
normally it takes only 1/10 damage.
but if player is far away from it, it will dash toward player.
and if it hit a wall while doing a dash, it become stunned for a short duration.
while stunned, it will take x3 damage.

2. Dark Forest
