Physical appearance

A Great Shellslug, from the . — A Great Shellslug, from the Quick Start Game Guide.

The Great Shellslug resembles an amalgam of fossilized bones and a tortoise. It possesses a grayish dark blue tortoise shell with pointy spikes along the outer rim, and a lower body made of a mix of brown dirt and Fusion Matter. Up front, it has a neckless head made of the same materials as its body, but with two featureless red eyes and a mouth with a green maw and two fangs protruding from its jaw. It also has two arms with four-fingered hands made of fossilized gray bones held together by Fusion Matter. In addition, it has webbing between its fingers that are made of Fusion Matter and various forms of dirt. Extending from down its pelvis is also a fossilized and spiky spine held together by Fusion Matter, with a tail tip consisting of the skull of a Ceratopsian dinosaur, compete with green eyes, two horns on its nose, and spikes along its frill.

Gameplay

In gameplay, the Great Shellslugs are enemy monsters that the player fights at various points in the game, either optionally, or as a part of a mission objective. To target a Great Shellslug, align the Avatar with it to make its information window appear on the top of the screen. Should its Health Bar reach zero when battling it, the Fusion Matter animating the Great Shellslug will break up, and the Great Shellslug will disintegrate.^[2] The player will then automatically receive some Fusion Matter and Taros as reward. Sometimes, the player also automatically receives loot from defeated Great Shellslugs in the form of C.R.A.T.E.s, Nano Potions, and Weapon Boosts.

In battle, the Great Shellslugs target the Avatar when they get close enough. However, the higher the Avatar's level is, the closer they can get to a Great Shellslug without it attacking them. Once they begin fighting, the Great Shellslugs will continue attacking until either they are destroyed, the Avatar is defeated, or the Avatar moves too far away from their point of origin. If the Avatar runs away from them, the Great Shellslugs will follow them until they get too far away from their area of roaming, at which point they will return, where they will regain their full health instantly. Notably, while retreating, they will be invulnerable to attacks. Also, once defeated, a Great Shellslug will respawn after one hundred and fifty seconds.

Powers and abilities

Skills the Great Shellslugs have exhibited include:

Durability: The Great Shellslugs are highly durable, being made of fossilized bones that are impossible to break.^[1]
Fusion Matter Explosion: The Great Shellslugs possess the Eruption Attack, which lets them create a localized explosion of Fusion Matter from the ground. When launching this attack, the Great Shellslugs make the ground below their opponent glow with Fusion Matter for a few seconds before causing a pillar of Fusion Matter to erupt.
Nano Drain: The Great Shellslugs possess the Corruption Attack, which lets them drain Nanos of their stamina. When they are attacking a Nano, they will start to glow, which is the wind up, before throwing an attack that will trump their opponent's Nano. Should it make contact, the Nano will lose a lot of stamina. Conversely, if their opponent drops their current Nano and brings out one that deflects the attack back at the Great Shellslugs, the Nano will get a boost in stamina. Should the Great Shellslugs launch their Corruption Attack on an opponent without a Nano out though, the former will take damage.
Potion Consumption: The Great Shellslugs possess the Battery Drain, which lets them launch attacks that can drain the Avatar's supply of Nano Potions and Weapon Boosts by a certain amount.
Speed: The Great Shellslugs are said to be fast.^[1]
