The adventurous undead of the jungle canopy
Doctor Bones is an exceptionally rare zombie variant that stalks the Underground Jungle, dressed in a fedora and adventuring vest reminiscent of classic archaeological explorers. Endowed with 500 health and 10 defense, he possesses greater durability than standard zombies while traversing dark subterranean foliage. His elusive presence makes him a prized sight for explorers navigating dangerous jungle thorns and underground beehives.
Tracking the rare explorer and claiming archaeological hats
Dealing 20 contact damage in Classic and 40 in Expert, Doctor Bones marches steadily toward miners through tangled foliage. Slaying this rare scholar always yields the Archaeologist's Hat at a 100% rate, providing an iconic vanity hat to complete an adventurer wardrobe and showcase rare trophy collections. Equipping this hat pairs nicely with Archaeologist's Pants and Jacket crafted from leather at a loom.
Trivia
- Doctor Bones is detected as a rare creature by the Lifeform Analyzer.
