Wind-driven hazards of the arid desert
Angry Tumblers are sentient, prickly tumbleweeds that roll across the Desert surface during Windy Day events. Swept up by gusting desert winds, they tumble over dunes with high forward momentum, gaining speed as they roll down sandy slopes. They possess 50 health and 6 defense.
Dodging rolling briars and collecting spicy nachos
Colliding with an Angry Tumbler inflicts 30 contact damage in Classic and 60 in Expert, often catching miners off guard as they cross open dunes. Vanquishing these rolling briars yields the Nachos food item at a 3.33% rate, granting the Plenty Satisfied buff to boost all player attributes.
Trivia
- Angry Tumblers roll faster when moving in the same direction as the prevailing wind.
- They are one of the few desert-specific enemies tied directly to the Windy Day weather condition.
