this guy spawns on day 15 and wrecks shit every time. never fails. i've had him destroy entire beefalo herds, entire forests, etc. nothing can stop him.

the trick is to grab some food and run away from your base when you hear him getting ready to spawn. then make a trail of food leading further away from your base. (CTRL key splits your food stack).

fighting him on day 15 is ridiculous. even with wigfrid and her helm and log armor.

he has special attacks. and normal attacks.

normal attack is his melee when agro. his melee will make you drop your weapon. this makes it really hard to do anything.

special attack (charge) seem to only kick in when all the food in the area has been eaten. meaning he will stop doing normal melee attacks if you're out of food and he is agro, making it even more impossible to kill him because the charge is hard to dodge in melee. so if you want to try to melee him like a boss, make sure theres plenty of food on the ground uneaten.

obviously the best way to kill him would be to use explosives, but to do this on day 15? you'd have to be extremely lucky. you'd have to make a birdcage and bird trap asap (8 swamp papyrus, gold nuggets, silk, alchemy engine), feed the bird, and then let those eggs rot, so you can craft the explosives in time. not sure if the eggs would rot in time by day 15 tbh.
