Sharkalotle

Quickstart

1. Open your inventory and go to the Nature tab in Creative mode — find the Sharklotl Hunter Spawn Egg there.
2. Use the spawn egg on any surface or in water to summon a Sharklotl Hunter immediately.
3. In Survival, explore oceans, deep ocean biomes, rivers, or beaches — the Sharklotl Hunter spawns naturally in these areas in groups of up to three.
4. Once encountered, stay alert: it pursues you relentlessly underwater and circles menacingly on land before striking.

Overview

The Sharklotl Hunter is a hostile aquatic predator that fuses the body of an axolotl with the aggression of a shark. It is dangerous in any environment — equally threatening whether you are swimming through the ocean depths or standing on a beach. Unlike passive axolotls, this creature treats players as prey.

What It Adds

• Sharklotl Hunter — a new hostile mob that spawns naturally in ocean, deep ocean, river, and beach biomes.
• Sharklotl Hunter Spawn Egg — available in the Nature creative tab, letting you summon the mob instantly.

Abilities And Mechanics

Dual-Environment Hunting

The Sharklotl Hunter is lethal in two distinct modes depending on where the encounter takes place:

• Underwater: It locks onto you and gives chase at high speed, with an extra burst of acceleration to close the gap if you try to flee. It will not give up until one of you is dead.
• On land: Rather than charging straight in, it circles you at a short distance — cutting off escape routes and closing in before attacking.

Drying Out

Like a real axolotl, the Sharklotl Hunter suffers on dry land over time. If it cannot reach water within roughly 30 seconds of drying out, it begins taking continuous damage. Rain can extend its survival on land. This gives players a potential survival strategy: lure it away from water and keep it grounded.

Breeding

Two adult Sharklotl Hunters can be bred using a Tropical Fish Bucket, producing a baby. The baby follows its parent until it grows up. There is an extremely rare chance a baby will be born as a colour variant.

Progression And Strategy

Fighting underwater is the most dangerous scenario. The Sharklotl Hunter is faster than a swimming player and accelerates to catch up. Prioritise fighting near the surface or on land when possible.

Fighting on land gives you more breathing room. The circling behaviour means it takes a moment before it closes in — use that window to attack from range or ready a strong melee weapon.

Looting enchantment significantly improves your drop chances, especially for the rarer items. Bring a Looting III sword for the best results.

Drops

The Sharklotl Hunter drops several items on death. All player-kill-only drops benefit from the Looting enchantment.

Tip: The Sharklotl Heart is the rarest drop and only comes from player kills — Looting increases the odds slightly, so always fight with a Looting-enchanted sword.

Natural Spawning

The Sharklotl Hunter spawns naturally on Easy through Hard difficulty in the following locations:

Spawning only occurs in low-light conditions (light level 0–7), and the spawn rate adjusts for weather. You are more likely to encounter them during storms or at night near the water's edge.
