Smalland: Survive the Wilds – How to Beat the Blue Tit Miniboss

This is a guide for beating the Blue Tit mini-boss in Smalland: Survive the Wilds.

Things You Need

To start, you’re gonna wanna go to your world settings. Set creature dmg to 30. If you want more of a challenge, set it to 50. Set creature health to 40.

Again, if it’s a challenge you want, set it to 60. After doing that, load up your world. Before raiding the Nest, you’ll need to collect some things first. The very first thing you need to get is tier 4 armor. This tier includes the Ironwing, bone, and pyrite armor sets. If you have one of these already, congratulations for being proactive!

Next, you’re going to need the pyrite greatsword (I will release a future guide on how to get this). if you already have that, then congratulations! you’ve got everything you need!

The Battle

Once you have everything on the list above, it is finally time. You are now ready to battle… THE BLUE TIT!! (Lightning flashes and a thunderclap echoes in the background.) Go to the jungle gym to the East of the broken bridge. Ignore the Aether camp on the ground level.

Just run around in the open, you will get it’s attention sooner or later. Once it comes down to peck at you, run in immediately and start swinging like there’s no tomorrow. It will go down eventually.

It is usually around lvl 70 I think and has 2 attacks; a basic peck in which it uses it’s beak to strike you, noticeable by it rearing it’s head back. It’s second attack is a ground pound in which it lifts itself up with it’s wings and slams down on top of you (beak first, obviously).

Neither of these attacks are blockable. After the fight, The creature will have given you a boatload of xp and dropped around 3 bones and 6 feathers. Make sure to pick up those feathers, as they will be vital to armor and weaponry later in the game. Go up to the Blue Tit nest and you will find a surprise that makes the whole endeavor worth it.

Handy Little Tips and Tricks

I would suggest you don’t fight the Blue Tit somewhere there are stinkbugs, purely due to the fact that they are nuisances and can poison you.

I have learned from experience just how table-turning this can be. You should also avoid Aetherin Camps during the fight. You’d think that seeing the equivalent of a dragon would spur them into fighting that instead of you… but no, they still target you. It is also a good idea to fight a Blue Tit with an easily accessible nest.

This makes it easier to get at the treasure inside. It’s still pretty hard, though.
