The Moon Leech Clot is a Hardmode, post-Lunatic Cultist projectile NPC which is spawned at the player's position when the Moon Lord's tongue grabs hold of the player. Moon Leech Clots do not deal any damage, but if a Moon Leech Clot manages to reach the Moon Lord's mouth before it is killed, a part of the Moon Lord that is currently alive regains 1,000 health.

Notes

Moon Leech Clots take 1.5 seconds to reach the Moon Lord's mouth.

Tips

Moon Leech Clots will always reach the Moon Lord's mouth in the same amount of time. They travel toward it at a variable rate, remaining almost stationary if the Moon Lord is in its default position behind the player. As a result of this, though it may seem counterintuitive, it is actually beneficial to be closer to the mouth to destroy Moon Leech Clots, as they will not move away as quickly.
Due to their low health and 0 defense, Moon Leech Clots can be easily taken out with most Hardmode weapons, but due to their fast speed, they should be targeted as soon as they appear.
