  • It is the only entity to drop cooked loot without the need for fire or cooking.
  • Its name is a pun on the words 'hell' and 'elephant'.

Survival Tips

Due to its high health and ragdoll-inducing attack, ranged weapons are almost a necessity.

Ensure you have decent hunger before fighting, as food is scarce in the Volcanic Biome and the fight can be long.

It can spawn near cultists, particularly at the Hellephant ritual circles, so be prepared for multiple threats.
