Gritshell is a new miniboss that will give the player new challenges in their game!

 Description of the mob:

gritshell

Found in swamps, this mob stays hidden and asleep under the mud. It will awaken and attack any player who ventures too close.

If you consistently hit the Gritshell's shell during the fight, it will eventually break. This forces the mob into a second phase with a different move set.

Although it is slow, if the player uses a shield before striking, the Morgenstern's damage will increase. Also, the Morgenstern partially ignores armor.


The Morgenstern is crafted from a core, a few iron nuggets, a chain, and a stick.

The core is crafted from 6 shell shards and 1 iron ingot.

Important note! To hit a shield with a morningstar, the weapon needs to have the Scaring enchantment. The cooldown after the hit depends on the enchantment level.

Any healing received while inside the Shell will be less effective than without it.


It is crafted from 7 shards and 1 iron block. craft3
