Dragon Snatcher

The Dragon Snatcher is a plant monster that appears in the Jungle. Its appearance is very similar to the Snatcher and the Underground Jungle's Man Eater, and its AI is identical.

The Dragon Snatcher is rooted to the ground, but resides in the background, similar to Worms. It is therefore able to move through walls, and is immune to knockback. Players should be cautious in the Jungle, as a hidden Dragon Snatcher can catch them by surprise. Caution should be advised even when the player seems to be out of the Dragon Snatcher's reach, as they can extend their stems and thus improve their reach rapidly.

Dragon Snatchers are immune to the Poisoned debuff.

Differences from Man Eaters and Snatchers

 * Dragon Snatchers can be distinguished from Snatchers by their body color, which is a pink vine (like Man Eaters'), as opposed to a green vine for Snatchers.
 * Dragon Snatchers do not drop Vines.
 * Dragon Snatchers spawn in ordinary Jungle biomes as opposed to Underground Jungle biomes. The depth at which Dragon Snatchers are replaced with Man Eaters is further below ground than a mere zero depth (as shown by the Depth Meter), and can start spawning between 700 to 1,000 feet below ground level (and very rarley near the surface), depending on the world size.

Trivia

 * The Dragon Snatcher drops a banner, even though the Snatcher does not.

History
