==Useful Info==<br />
'''Shambling mangroves''' are massive forest guardians: large and powerful, but slow. Along with their brutal melee attacks, they have a smite-targeted [[constriction]] ability. Shambling mangroves can be found in [[the Swamp]].<br />
<br />
Some shambling mangroves are generated with a few [[hornet]]s inside them, which will be released automatically once the mangrove is reduced below 50% [[HP]]. These creatures count as normal monsters for experience purposes and are not replenished. These hornets consider the shambling mangrove their band leader; even if you [[kite]] them away, the insects will regroup back to the mangrove. If you worship [[Fedhas]], the hornets will also be neutral towards you.<br />

==Tips & Tricks==<br />
*Grasping Roots will prevent you from moving or going upstairs until you break the constriction. In addition, it gives [[scrolls of blinking]] a chance to fail. This can make bad situations into lethal ones.<br />
**To avoid the effects of Grasping Roots, you can fly over [[deep water]] or [[lava]]. Just don't have your flight run out.<br />
*If you lack [[poison]] resistance, killing or disabling the hornets should be a major priority. Even if you have rPois, they still have a 1/18 chance to [[paralyse]] you on hit. With poison immunity, however, they are trivial.<br />

==History==<br />
{{CBA|0.34|shambling mangroves will have a small chance to create [[raven]]s when injured.}}<br />
*Prior to [[0.28]], shambling mangroves (and all plants) had rN+++.<br />
*Prior to [[0.23]], shambling mangroves' Grasping Roots ability inflicted a special 'grasping roots' status (-EV, +0.3 move delay, prevents [[flight]]) instead of [[constriction]].<br />
*Prior to the removal of [[wasp]]s in [[0.19]], shambling mangroves could release wasps.<br />
*Prior to [[raven]] removal in [[0.17]], shambling mangroves could also release ravens.<br />
*Shambling mangroves were added in [[0.14]]. During the shambling mangrove's development, it was originally known as a '''treant''' and was found in the [[Enchanted Forest]], an experimental [[branch]] that never made it into a stable release.</div>Maintenance script
