Description

An exceptionally large Mandragora, likely an exotic variant produced through an extended artificial selection process. Although the original objective behind its cultivation is no longer known, its unique sense of territoriality suggests it may have been the product of some kind of special experiment.
Amidst the inchoate chaos of the Ley Lines, its form has long since mutated, and it is now determined to harness the howling winds to let its spores swallow the land whole...

Official Mechanics

Powerful Agglomerated State

Affected by the Ley Line disturbance, when battle begins, this Nemesis enters the Agglomerated State, during which all RES is dramatically increased. While in this state, the Nemesis's Agglomeration Energy is constantly consumed. Dealing Pyro or Electro DMG to the Nemesis drains this energy more quickly. When its Agglomeration Energy is fully depleted, the Nemesis unleashes Sporebloom and switches to the Split State.

Split State

When this Nemesis enters the Split State, it splits into a large number of spores. When these spores take damage, a certain percentage of the total damage is also dealt to the Nemesis. After remaining in the Split State for a period of time, the Nemesis will return to the Agglomerated State. In this case, if the number of spores on the field falls below a certain number, the Nemesis will enter the Brittle Agglomerated State, during which all RES is greatly reduced and its combat abilities are diminished. Additionally, if all spores generated in Split State are defeated, the Nemesis will exit the Split State early and go into the Brittle Agglomerated State instead.

Hollow Structure

Affected by the Ley Line disturbance, when this Nemesis is in the Split State or the Brittle Agglomerated State, its Anemo RES is greatly reduced.
