About

The Inferno Ent is an old enemy entity that used to roam the realm. It was removed from the game many years ago. Despite being named ‘Inferno’ there is no fire to be seen on the actual ent, however it did shoot fire projectiles!


Stats

HP: 100
Location: HighForest


Behavior

The Inferno Ent had a very simple behavior that made it stay above a minimum altitude of 140, meaning it could not be dragged long distances from its respective terrain, and also were further up the realm, closer to the mountains than its very similar companion the Firebreathing Ent. Every 60 seconds it would reproduce a clone of itself to spread across the realm. Back then; this was a mechanic to simulate growth in enemy population and make the world feel more alive.

At last it would wander around with a speed of 0.02 and shoot at players within the reach of 10 tiles.
