Ancient Lotus is a species of hostile plant native to the Frozen Land biome. They have a very short agro range and attack with melee, but their whip can reach surprisingly far once threatened.
As with other Plant Creatures, they have a chance to drop seeds which can be grown in the Large Crop Plot to be used as online base defense. Plants requires fertilizer and water to be planted, and must have both at all times or it will die.
Upon being planted, the seed will go through three stages of growth. For Ancient Lotus, each stage takes 22 minutes.
When it reaches maturity, it will begin its life asleep, which means it cannot attack enemies. While asleep, Ancient Lotus will use approximately 30 fertilizer per 7 minutes. Awake however, it will use approximately 100,000 fertilizer per 7 minutes. This makes this plant a no-go for offline base defense as it will die within an hour or so of going offline, but it can be a powerful defense when you are online and able to activate it.
