since i started playing there were large normal enemies like lumbers, torjans, and so on. i heard that there is a tortoise like monster called the tortodrone
i have so much wanted to see and battle one but i havent seen any . why dont we make tortodrones more common in each tier. like 1 tortodrone per tier at least.

what do you guys think?

Really?

They removed him? Huh, thought he was just so damn hard to encounter. Also, @Widhaad; Tortodrones pack a whoppoin lotta punch. So best 1pertier doesnt happen.

sense were talking about extinct moneters,

have one of u guys ever seen a Sloom or a Sloombargo. i mean their rare, but rare enough so that sense i started this game i haven't seen one. that just too rare for me.

and also why is the location Shrine of Slumber, no longer available? even the images they had of it is gone forever into the bowls of forgotten history. why have they completely removed it from the game?

The devs said they'd put them back in around 9 months ago in a thread. So I'd say they should be due to return in about 6 months ago.

Those are not in the game anymore at all. The only special lichen left is soul jelly.

Slooms

I encountered a Sloom at Gloaming Wildwoods. They're just rare from monster cages.

maybe because inflicting sleep status may be op leaving enemies vulnerable to attack (especially lockdown)

Apparently sleep is very unbalanced. Because yes the monster becomes immobilized for some time because they're asleep, but also they gain health.

oh

what a shame, could have used it to just sleep a while and heal at the same time. monsters always have an edge in every game, sad.

Waiiiiiiiiiiiiiit

If I remember correctly slooms used to drop Zee cores, I don't know if they're removed from the game but it still has a description but, doesn't have any recipes which need it. Is this for unused sleep weapons?

Poor Tortodrone was wiped out because he lacked one thing.

But, yeah, Tortodrone is coming back. Some day.

i noticed..

i noticed something really nice about tortodrones. as the description said, they are very docile monsters and they do not attack unless provoked. so i was thinking, why not apply some of the tortodrone unique nature to some other monsters in the clockworks. for now i was thinking the wolvers, if they could have some kind of enraged transformation like the tortodrone has. there abilities could be enhance very small, not as wide as the tortodrones.

they can just have a tail whack as an added feature or a rush tackle and the trigger to that transformation can be some kind of fruit that is put in the middle of the dungeon that act like a health pill to restore a knight to full health. once the knight picks it up, all the wolver would be tranformed to their enraged status and stats to actively attack players no matter their status or health bar.

The papaya cries

*Whimpers* I know why they all died out..................... Slooms and Sloombargos were hunted for their gel drops. Since Spiral HQ didn't want to become responsible for them becoming extinct they scattered the gel drops all around the clockworks so that people never knew Slooms and Sloombargos existed. Tortodrones were hunted for their mechanical parts in their arms, the gremlins used these to build mechanics or machines (like gun puppies) and we use these to craft swords, weapons, and armor 0_0 But a few Tortodrones are left, and they are gonna come back soon, WATCH OUT EVERYONE >:)
