The Ancient Sentrypede is a Mob exclusive to Don't Starve Together, introduced in Return of Them. It can be found in the Ancient Archive, it appears when a Sentrypede Husk absorbs a Security Pulse emitted by an active Ancient Guard Post.
Behavior[]
An Ancient Sentrypede is aggressive towards players. It has three type of attacks:
- It can attack one target doing 40 damage.
- It can slam the ground, doing 20 AoE damage in a radius of 5 units.
- It can roll and charge straight over a distance of 20 units, doing 40 damage to all players and damaging all structures on the path.
When it is out of combat, it returns to the place where it was reanimated from a Sentrypede Husk. Ancient sentrypedes stay active even after the Archive Switch has been deactivated.
Sentrypede Husk[]
“A pile of old spare parts.”
“Just a bunch of broken parts.”
“Is big pile of junk.”
“It's dead.”
“INACTIVE”
“These parts appear to be inoperative.”
“This whole place is littered with these things!”
“A pile of worthless parts.”
“This sentry seems tö be asleep at its pöst.”
“Someone left these parts lying around.”
“Hm, it seems to be missing a key ingredient.”
“Sleeping. Shhh”
“Wonder what made these things tick?”
“An empty, soulless shell.”
“Buncha Ironfolk bits.”
–Wurt
“I don't think it's worked in a long time.”
“Not one usable bit of clockwork to be found.”
Sentrypede Husks are commonly found in the Ancient Archive. They can be activated into Ancient Sentrypedes by Security Pulses. The Sentrypede Husk reappears when the Ancient Sentrypede is defeated.
The Sentrypede Husk has 300 Health and it regenerates 1 health per second. It can be damaged down to 45 health but it cannot be destroyed.
- Between 300 to 198 health, the Sentrypede Husk can be activated by a Security Pulse.
- Between 197 to 99 health, it appears degraded and cannot be activated.
- Between 98 to 45 health, it has an even more degraded appearance and cannot be activated.
Trivia[]
- The Ancient Sentrypede was introduced in the Forgotten Knowledge update.
- The name "Sentrypede" is a portmanteau of "Sentry" and "Centipede".
- Weirdly enough, the Ancient Sentrypede can damage Shadow creatures when rolling or slamming, such as a Crawling Horror or Terrorbeak, but it cannot identify it as a target. this results it in being attacked by them.[1]
- However it is unable to damage and aggro them when wearing a Bone Helm, or when the player has high sanity.
