Year of the Varg
“A terror cotta monster!”
“How'd you get your eyes to do that?!”
“Big clay puppy!”
“To perish now would save me much sorrow.”
“YOU WILL BE DESTROYED”
“Ah, how charmingly fearsome.”
“Look at the size of you.”
“This earthen beast's all fired up.”
“Lö! What terrible beast!”
“N-nice puppy!”
“I'm not on the menu!”
“Aggh! Alive now!”
“You lookin' to scrap, big guy?”
“Growl and bark, teeth like a shark!”
“Big teeth!”
–Wurt
“Don't worry, I'm good with dogs!”
“Not a statue!!”
Clay Vargs spawn from Suspicious Dirt Piles like normal Vargs do if there is an activated Varg Shrine in the world. They will appear as a statue surrounded by twelve Clay Hounds and will wake up if a player approaches them and stays in front of the Clay Varg for an extended period of time. Clay Vargs have the same health and fighting stats as normal Vargs, but will drop 4-6 Red Pouches instead of Monster Meat. They additionally drop 1-3 Hound's Teeth.
Unlike normal Vargs, Clay Vargs are unable to summon Clay Hounds or regular Hounds. They cannot be set on fire or put to sleep.
Trivia
- According to Rhymes with Play #179, the reason that the new Clay Hounds and Vargs in the event are earthen-themed is because the developers discovered that the Chinese lunar year that the event was held in (2018) was associated with the element of earth.
