Can You Defeat the Forest Keeper in Lethal Company?

At the moment, there is only one known way to kill the Forest Keeper: with Lethal Company’s largest monster, the Earth Leviathan. The Earth Leviathan is a colossal monster that is most likely a reference to Dune’s sandworms. It burrows into the ground, leaving enormous caves behind them, and devours everything in its path.

You’ll need to lure the Forest Keeper into the path of the Leviathan with a few steps. First, you’ll need to lure a Leviathan to a spot close by the Forest Keeper. You’ll then need to carefully taunt the Forest Keeper and dodge its attacks, keeping it close to you. Once you can hear the Leviathan’s signature rumble noise, run as fast as you can. If done properly, the Leviathan will consume the Forest Keeper after leaping up from the ground.

Tip:

You can dodge the Earth Leviathan’s attacks by watching out for the ground rumbling beneath you. Once that starts, make a run for it as fast as you can. The timing on this is crucial!

Not only is this deliciously fun to do, but you’ll feel like an absolute badass in the process.

What is the Forest Keeper?

The Forest Keeper is a menacing foe that can be found in forest biomes, such as the March, Dine, and Vow moons. The lore behind the Forest Keeper is interesting, as they’re tree-like in appearance, but not necessarily trees themselves. Like plants, they use photosynthesis to feed themselves, though they also eat everything in sight, including you.

How to Spot Forest Keeper in Lethal Company

Forest Keeper looks like a big headless giant that’s taller than most of the trees in the forest. Naturally, Forest Keeper can only be found outside. It has eyes on the chest and mouth where the stomach area would be (reminiscent of Xing Tian if you are into SMITE or mythology and ancient deities in general).

You can hear its very loud and ground-shaking footsteps when it’s moving nearby. The Forest Keeper is wide, but thin, meaning that sometimes you won’t easily spot it from a distance if it’s standing sideways.

How to Outrun Forest Keeper in Lethal Company

Since we can’t beat the Forest Keeper and can’t join it either (not in a way that’s beneficial for us, at least), we have to outrun it. One crucial factor to outrunning the Forest Keeper is to stay out of its line of sight, as it apparently can’t hear anything, so breaking its line of sight and staying as far away from it as possible will hopefully make it stop chasing you.

Stunning the Forest Keeper or using the Jet Pack can aid you in getting some advantage while trying to outrun it.
