Vine Lord

The Vine Lord is one of the three bosses to spawn in The Forest.

Behavior
As soon as you trigger it, it will do one of its attacks.

Strategy
You should watch out for the visual cue that indicates the needle shot and try to evade the poison and the little man-eating plants.

Other than that the Vine Lord has no other attacks so you should be able to take him out easily.

Champion Variant
The champion variant has a purple coloration, and possesses a new property.

The boss has a spike ball attached to it that will attempt to follow the player when the boss is standing on the ground. The spike deals damage and poisons on contact.

When enranged, the Vine Lord's Poison Seed attack will have it launch all of its seeds at once. It will launch Man-eater Seeds in a similar manner.
