Broken Vessel

Shattered corpse, reanimated by infected parasites.

Hunter’s notes

The shape of this creature... I have seen something like it before. More than once, perhaps. It looks a little like the bugs of Hallownest, but not quite the same. Where did these empty little wanderers come from?

The notes unlock after 1 kill.

Nail hits to kill

Its 525 HP over the nail's damage per hit at each upgrade, plain and with Fragile or Unbreakable Strength (×1.5, rounded the game's way). Some places give it different HP; the table by area below has each one.

Where it is, its HP and Geo there 2

HP and Geo are read from each scene’s own HealthManager, so they’re exact for that place. Geo with Fragile Greed follows the game’s rule: each coin size gets 20% more coins, rounded up.
