Brooding Mawlek

Ferocious but extremely social creature. Becomes aggressive if not able to mingle with its own kind.

Hunter’s notes

I hear this beast crying out sometimes as I prowl the caverns, although I’ve never actually laid eyes on it. Who or what is it calling for? As far as I can tell, its voice is never answered.

The notes unlock after 1 kill.

Nail hits to kill

Its 300 HP over the nail's damage per hit at each upgrade, plain and with Fragile or Unbreakable Strength (×1.5, rounded the game's way).

HP and Geo are read from each scene’s own HealthManager, so they’re exact for that place. Geo with Fragile Greed follows the game’s rule: each coin size gets 20% more coins, rounded up.
