Rustles are passive woodland creatures found in the Veiled Woodlands biome. They can be sheared to collect string-like drops and will regrow their fur over time, making them a renewable resource.
Locating Veiled Woodlands
Veiled Woodlands is a unique biome covered in silk and filled with ambient woodland life. Search the End for this calmer, forest-like biome distinct from the hostile Corrupt Barrens and open highlands.
Shearing Rustles
Approach a Rustle and use shears on it to collect string-like drops. The creature won't be harmed—it will simply lose its fur. Rustles are passive and won't flee, making them easy to farm.
Regeneration and Farming
After shearing, Rustles regrow their fur over time. This makes them ideal for setting up a renewable string farm. Keep Rustles in an enclosed area or return to the same location periodically to re-harvest. The regrowth mechanic means you can sustainably collect materials without depleting the population.
