Leaping Husk

The remains of a bug, animated by a strange force. It will instinctively leap at uninfected creatures to attack them.

Hunter’s notes

The bugs of old Hallownest did not hunt their own food, they had it brought to them. That’s why they were so weak. That’s why their kingdom crumbled into dust and faded away!

The notes unlock after 35 kills.

Nail hits to kill

Its 15 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).

Where it is, its HP and Geo there 10

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.
