Drops

Dragonfly drops nothing in the game's drop rules.

Swift wetland hoverer above reeds and ponds

Dragonflies zip across water pools, desert oases, and reed-filled ponds with rapid changes in momentum. Providing 20% bait power, they make decent fishing lures when captured with a Bug Net. Players can also combine captured dragonflies with glass jars to produce decorative Dragonfly Jars that simulate their erratic hovering flight.

Trivia

  • Dragonflies spawn around cattails growing in shallow freshwater pools.
