Mold Tentacle

Mold Tentacle is a hostile creature encountered in Azeos' Wilderness. It appears as part of a small mold patch with a Mold Well in the middle, and its presence is tied to the mold infection that spreads through the area.

Mold Tentacles primarily spawn on Mold Block ground placed in any biome, so they are not limited to a single region once the relevant terrain exists. They are dangerous at close range, especially because the mold infection they inflict can make encounters much more punishing when the player is already low on health. The creature also emits light in the dark, which makes it easier to spot from a distance and reduces the chance of being ambushed.

• A Mold Tentacle is easier to notice at night or in dark areas because it glows.
• Its mold infection makes it a risky enemy, since a single hit can be fatal when the player is at low health.
• Using a shovel to clear some of the Mold Ground and replace it with bridges can temporarily remove the movement-slowing infection effect from the ground, giving the player a short window to move freely and dodge more safely.
