Ickers are creatures exclusive to Don't Starve Together, introduced in From Beyond. They spawn in groups of 5 to 10, in narrow areas in the Caves during Shadow Rift activity. Ickers have Planar Entity Protection, which greatly reduces Physical Damage from a Weapon. When attacked, Ickers drop globs of gloop that slowly crawl back to them, healing for the damage they receive. If the player cannot deal damage faster than the Icker heals, they will never be able to defeat it.

The blobs dropped from Ickers can be collected by using an Empty Bottle and turn it into an Icker Jar.

Getting too close to an Icker causes the player to be slowed by its gloop. If an Icker lands directly on the player or the player gets inside their hitbox, it deals 4 hits of damage and steals one equipped item. This can be particularly dangerous if the stolen item is a light source or essential equipment like armor or a weapon. The stolen item will drop when Icker is killed or player gets eaten again.

Riding a Beefalo also gets slowed by Icker but will not gets eaten by it.

The Ickers will despawn once the Shadow Rift closes.
