Giant Tortoise

The Giant Tortoise is a Hardmode Jungle enemy that hurls itself at players, dealing incredible damage on contact. It drops Turtle Shells, which are essential for crafting Turtle armor.

Tips

 * Damaging a Giant Tortoise causes them to stop their attack animation.
 * Melee is highly effective. As long as you stay close to the tortoise and continue attacking, it will be unable to use its jump attack.
 * Try not to make it enter Liquid as it will make it automatically charge at you.
 * Any tactics that work for the Ice Tortoise should be effective against the Giant Tortoise, as well.
