Moose (Goose) | Don't Starve

Don't Starve Walkthrough → Moose (Goose)


The Moose will flee with the onset of Summer. To freeze the Goose, you need to hit it four times with an Ice Staff, and to put it to sleep, a single accurate shot from a Blowgun is enough. Upon death, you can find Meat x6, Ham x2, and Feathers from 3 to 5.

If the boss appears in your base, you can also spawn its egg by waiting one in-game day, from which five Moose Cubs will run out. They will not grow into another Moose-Goose, but if you attack them, the little ones will cry and the boss will respawn. Also, don't forget that raining frogs can potentially cause the Giant to reappear (editor's note: raining frogs can occur in Maxwell's portal) if the toads start attacking the Lucky Ones.

If the character runs far enough, the Moose (Goose) will leap forward and attack with its horns. At this point, you can hit the boss three times before its attack animation begins. If the Moose's head tilts, the player's current weapon will be ejected from the slot. This boss can also destroy structures, but it's not as terrifying as the Deer Cyclops with its area-of-effect attacks.


How to break off the wings/horns of an Moose/Goose?

Close combat. The enemy will play a warning animation when it sees the player and becomes aggressive. Next, the Goose will begin to slowly and loudly leap toward the player. After every third hit, it will perform a horns attack, knocking weapons out of hands. Due to the Goose's slow movement and similar attack, it's possible to use a three-hit tactic, as with the Cyclops Deer. Another option: mitigate all the damage from the monster with a football helmet and wooden armor (editor's note: however, it's unknown how many sets of armor and football helmets are required).

Beefalo. Since the Goose lacks an area-of-effect attack, it can be brought into a Beefalo herd during "mating season" (editor's note: when Beefalo tails glow red) . Since the boss can only attack one target at a time, herd losses will be minimal. Friendly pigs are also good, but they will eat all the meat after defeating the monster.
