Slammer

Slammers are big blue birds with three eyes and pink needles in their back. They are exclusively found in the Cavern and in the Astrolab (requires 5 BSC).

Behavior
Slammers cannot fly, but can hop across platforms, following the player relentlessly. Their only attack is to slam their beak on the ground, which provokes an ice shock area of effect. This attack is extremely fast and cannot be parried, therefore it is essential to roll away and hit Slammers on their back.

Slammers cannot detect the player through walls, but they can move vertically to follow the player once they have been engaged.

Elites
Slammer Elites, on top of having any of the Elite special abilities, are significantly faster than normal Slammers. In the Astrolab, a Slammer Elite holds the Allen key, necessary for progressing in the level. In addition, a couple of of Slammer Elites guard the entrance to the Observatory by holding two Guardian's keys.
