Wilson, Glommer

Glommer is a passive Mob from the Reign of Giants DLC.

Glommer is found during every Full Moon at Glommer's Statue, along with a Glommer's Flower. Glommer will follow the player when Glommer's Flower is picked up, similar to Chester and his Eye Bone. If Glommer's Flower is dropped on the ground or put inside a stationary container, Glommer will remain in the area near the flower. If Glommer's Flower is placed inside Chester, Glommer will follow Chester. When day-time comes and if the flower is still attached to Glommer's Statue, Glommer will fly away up into the air (similar to a Mosling).

When tamed, Glommer provides a Sanity aura of +6.25/min, (only while standing extremely close, similar to befriended Pigs) making it useful in countering the nighttime sanity drain of -5/min. It will also drop Glommer's Goop once every 2–4 days.

Killing Glommer raises the player's Naughtiness by 50 (which is the naughtiness cap), therefore Glommer is the only creature in RoG that will cause Krampus to immediately spawn when killed by the player. (This aspect is replicated in the Shipwrecked DLC, when killing a Doydoy with only 1-2 left in the world, or the Sealnado when in Seal form.)

If killed, Glommer will drop 3 Monster Meat, 1 Glommer's Wings, and 2 Glommer's Goop, and will re-spawn the next full moon. It falls asleep after being hit by 3 Sleep Darts.

Like other followers, Glommer can be targeted by the player while performing a force attack. Below is the number of hits it takes, with a default damage modifier, to kill Glommer. The Weather Pain is not included due to the random nature of its projectile.

Glommer will not be attacked by any variety of Spider or Bee.

Prototype.png Tips

  • Glommer can be killed indirectly by luring it near a Catcoon (e.g. to collect its drops for the Old Bell). This avoids summoning Krampus.
  • Standing directly next to Glommer during the night can negate the sanity loss from the said time of day.
  • It is possible to get the Glommer Flower with Woodie by planting a Lureplant near Glommer's Statue on a full moon, then killing the Lureplant after it has eaten the flower. Woodie can then pick up the dropped flower after returning to his normal form. Alternatively, the player can use a longer night, leave the wereform alone for a long period to turn back quickly, and get the flower before the moon end.
  • Due to the inexistence of the old bell in DST, it may be better to avoid killing glommer, unless the player wishes to summon Krampus. Instead, it is recommended to set Glommer near or at one's base. It will passively produce Glommer's Goop (which can act as a fuel, fertilizer, or food in a pinch). Glommer also restores sanity to any player near him.
  • If Mysterious Energy is activated, Glommer is able to respawn at its statue every night. Killing Glommer every day provides players with a steady stream of Krampii, and produces Glommer goop at a faster rate than Glommer's passive production rate.
  • Glommer can still appear indefinitely even if the statue has been damaged with a Pickaxe to get the Old Bell recipe.

Placeholder.png Trivia

  • Glommer makes a sort of "zeitzer", or buzzing, sound.
  • Wigfrid's umlauts affect the "o" in "Glommer," making it "Glömmer," which means "forgets" in Swedish.
  • Wickerbottom's quote describes Glommer as an insect (Insecta), probably due to its six legs. There are many features that don't fit into the real-life classification, however.

  • When Glommer gets killed right before exiting the Caves, while its flower stays underground, it will be revived despite of its flower turning perishable. Furthermore, during the next full moon, another Glommer will spawn, enabling the player to have multiple at once.
  • Sometimes Glommer and Chester cannot be killed even with force attack, except using blow darts.
