- This is the Stick Bug NPC. For attack behavior and the actual challenge, please see Stick Bug Challenge.
The Stick Bug is an NPC character normally found on the tallest mushroom in Mushroom Field and is accessible via cannon and Parachute/Glider or using the Beekeeper's Boots and jumping from the 2nd mushroom to the one with the Royal Jelly. Players will need the Translator to talk to Stick Bug, where then they can ask him to initiate the Stick Bug Challenge. The Stick Bug then appears as a boss mob and always spawns in the Sunflower Field first. Upon defeat he flees to a random field from this list:
- Sunflower Field
- Clover Field
- Strawberry Field
- Bamboo Field
- Pineapple Patch
- Cactus Field
- Pumpkin Patch
- Mountain Top Field
Stick Bug NPC vanishes when the Stick Bug Challenge is active. Near him is the Top Stick Bug Fighters leaderboard. You can start the stick bug challenge for free per one and half days (1d:12h:00m:00s), or initiate it anytime for 50 Tickets (or by giving Stick Bug a Present.)
As of the Egg Hunt 2019 update, Stick Bug can now summon sprouts.
