Editing Clot (section)

=== Behaviour ===
The Clot slowly walks towards the nearest player, taking the most direct path available. When it reaches a player, it will grab hold of them and repeatedly bite or scratch them. If there is more than one Clot, then they will unwittingly try to surround the player in a scrabble to eat them. If a player succumbs to this and dies, the surrounding clots will begin eating the corpse for a short while unless disturbed by other players. During the [[Patriarch]] battle, the summoned clots have the tendency to attack and prioritize whichever player is doing the most damage to the Patriarch.

In Suicidal and Hell on Earth difficulties it's impossible to break free of a clot's hold by jumping, making shooting the only escape. If one find themselves at the grabbing reach of too many clots, jumping away won't work on lower difficulties either. Clots will be easily decapitated, flinched or killed with simple weapons but at medium-high difficulties, landing headshots from weak weapons will left them headless before they die. When softly decapitated by weak weapons, Clots will stagger and start bleeding while wailing around uncontrollably. At this state, before they completely bleed out and keel over, their damage and reach roughly doubled just like they have an enraged state.

The Clot may attack other specimens in retaliation for friendly fire. However, due to its low health, any attack suffered from another specimen will usually kill the Clot before it has chance to do so. Example culprits to this aggression are projectile attacks with splash damage such as [[Bloat]]s acidic puke, [[Husk]]s fire balls and any ranged attack of [[Patriarch]]. If you manage to make the Patriarch damage itself by rocket splash way too long in the vicinity of Clots by welding doors, some Clots who survived that explosion may attack the Patriarch in retaliation rather than the player, distracting both the Patriarch and the Clots involved in this glitch.
