Tar Slick

A pool of black tar that drifts on the waves. It looks harmless while it sits still. It isn't.

Behavior

Sits still until something attacks it, then fights back where it lies. Slippery: every hit that doesn't kill it slides it 15 to 30 m away, sometimes right up onto the beach — a Shield Charge or a stun pins it in place. Corrosive: its hits wear your armor and Shield 5x faster, and your weapon wears 3x faster hitting it. Ignores Taunt.

Drops
