Dust Strider

Dust Strider is an aggressive melee mob found in Dustopia.

Spawning
A Duston spawns a Dust Strider every 30 seconds while the player is within 15 blocks.

Dust Striders will despawn if the player gets too far away from them, or if the difficulty is set to Peaceful.

Behavior
Dust Striders are melee mobs that will follow targets both on land and in water. They will initially attempt to avoid getting into the water where possible, but will go in if they find no other path to their target.

They are aggressive, and will attack nearby players within 16 blocks without provocation. If attacked by another entity, they will retaliate and continue targeting that entity.

When they attack the player, they will cause a screen effect.

Staying outside of their targeting range will prevent them from attacking or targeting entities.
