An Aerwhale
"Aerwhales, the gentle giants of the Aether, can be found floating on the horizon, munching on Golden Oaks and strips of Blue Aerclouds as the sun climbs higher in the sky."
Aerwhales are peaceful, whale-like creatures. They are invincible and will simply move away if hit. These gentle creatures drift through the skies, forever swimming through paradise.
Aerwhales are very prone to getting stuck against mountainsides and silver dungeons. If this happens, you can hit them and they will spin rapidly in circles. Eventually they will get unstuck and take to the sky again. Sometimes, though, they will still be spinning. Luckily, once they get floating again, their rotation will slow, they will regain balance, and they will soar once more. They are also immune to fire.
Known bugs
The Aerwhale's size compared to the player
- Aerwhales will sometimes seem to randomly lose their textures. The cause is currently unknown.
- Though the Gravitite sword can't hurt an Aerwhale sometimes it can fling the airwhale into the sky like it does to other mobs.
- If hit by a poisoned dart, they gain the poison animation (Bleeding) and move erratically.
- They sometimes tend to get stuck in walls because, for some reason, they are attracted to walls.
- Sometimes a sound similar to a whale can be heard, even on Peaceful, even though Aerwhales do not spawn on Peaceful.
