Gnarled Husk

Reward:

Heart of Oak: A rare item used in crafting powerful enchanted wooden tools or creating armor that grants resistance to nature-based effects like poison and paralysis.

Gnarled Bark: This resource can be used to enhance weapons with nature-based effects, giving them increased durability or a chance to deal extra damage to plant-based mobs.

Abilities:

Wooden Slam: The Gnarled Husk uses its massive arms to slam the ground, sending splinters and wood fragments flying toward players, dealing minor area damage. These splinters can also briefly slow movement speed.

Fungal Growth: The creature releases spores that cause mushrooms to grow rapidly in the area. These mushrooms release toxic clouds that deal minor poison damage to any player who gets too close.

Entangling Roots: The Gnarled Husk can send its roots deep into the ground, causing nearby players to become rooted in place for a short period, making it difficult for them to dodge its attacks.

Weakness:

Axes and fire-based weapons are highly effective against the Gnarled Husk, especially those with fire enchantments. It also takes more damage from weapons designed for chopping down trees.
