Periodically, your base will come under attack from waves of monsters. These attacks are announced by a warning message. You must defend the base banner from destruction.
Defense Strategies:
- Strong Walls: Replace dirt walls with stone or even better, iron blocks, as soon as possible.
- Traps: Learn to craft and place Spiked Barricades and Big Barricades. Place them strategically around your base's perimeter.
- Height Advantage: Build elevated platforms to attack enemies from above with ranged weapons or by dropping blocks on them.
- Villager Support: Your villagers will often help in combat, but don't rely solely on them.
The chapter culminates in a boss battle against the Golem. This massive stone creature is slow but powerful. Its main attack is a ground pound that sends shockwaves. To defeat it:
- Destroy its Arms: The Golem's arms are vulnerable. Focus your attacks on them.
- Target the Core: Once an arm is destroyed, the Golem will fall, exposing its core. Attack the core relentlessly.
- Avoid Shockwaves: Jump over the shockwaves it creates.
- Use Explosives (Optional but Recommended): If you've unlocked Bomb crafting, they are highly effective against the Golem's arms and core.
After defeating the Golem, you'll receive the Heart of Cantlin, completing the chapter and allowing you to move on to the next land.
