Clawdian

The Clawdian is a miniboss found in the Acropolis, one of the overworld dungeons in Cataclysm. This creature wields a massive hammer and has 225 health points and 12 armor points, making it a formidable opponent.

About the Clawdian

In addition to other creatures like the Urchinkin and Drowned Host, multiple Clawdians can be found within the Acropolis. Typically, around three will spawn in the dungeon, spread across multiple floors.

The Clawdian can be farmed for Lacrima, a resource dropped by all creatures in the Acropolis. It is used to create new equipment. However, the Clawdian also drops the Chitin Claw, which is the only mob that drops it.

Defeating Clawdian

Clawdian is one of the more powerful minibosses in the Cataclysm mod, featuring a substantial 225 Health and 12 Armor points. During the encounter, Clawdian has various attack moves it can perform.

One of the most prominent abilities is its charge attack, where it crouches down and then rushes at the player, knocking them up. This attack can be dodged if the player is quick enough or using items like Ender Pearls.

When at a distance, the Clawdian will pick up chunks of the terrain and throw them at the player, stunning them for a few seconds. Alternatively, it can summon waves that extend outward, hitting the player with a wetness debuff instead.

If the player gets too close to Clawdian, it will attempt to strike them with its hammer. Although most of Clawdian’s attacks can be dodged, the fight remains quite dangerous. The easiest way to defeat Clawdian is by using a bow and arrow from a distance, along with Potions of Speed.

Loot & Rewards

Clawdian drops only two items. The first is Lacrima, and between 5 and 8 Lacrima are dropped each time Clawdian is defeated. Lacrima is used to craft the Astrape, Azure Seastone, Ceraunus, and Azure Sea Shield.

Another item that can be obtained is the Chitin Claw, which will be dropped by each Clawdian. Chitin Claws can be equipped in the Curios hands slot and provide a +0.5 increase in entity interaction range, as well as a +0.75 increase in block interaction range.
