Defeating the Harrower pays out substantial endgame rewards. The boss does not drop Hollowforged armor or Worldshard directly. Instead, it awards a Hollow Core that is used in their crafting recipes.
Guaranteed rewards
Every successful kill awards:
| Reward | Amount |
|---|---|
| Hollow Core | 1 |
| Enchanted Golden Apples | 2–4 |
| Netherite Ingots | 4–8 |
| Experience | 1,000–1,500 XP |
Independent bonus rolls
These rolls are independent. More than one can succeed in the same fight.
| Bonus category | Chance |
|---|---|
| Enchanted weapon | 65% |
| Enchanted Netherite armor piece | 80% |
| Additional 2–4 Enchanted Golden Apples | 60% |
| 1–2 Nether Stars | 50% |
| Elytra | 35% |
| 2–4 Totems of Undying | 75% |
| Heavy Core | 40% |
| Enchanted Netherite tool | 45% |
| Rare find | 35% |
The weapon roll can produce a Netherite sword, Netherite axe, Mace, Trident, Bow, or Crossbow with curated enchantments. The armor roll selects one Netherite armor slot. The tool roll selects a Netherite pickaxe, axe, or shovel. The rare-find category includes selected armor-trim smithing templates, a Netherite Upgrade smithing template, and selected enchanted books.
The equipment enchantments are deliberately curated, including mutually exclusive choices where vanilla enchantments conflict. The listed rolls are not increased by ordinary Looting or Luck.
When does the loot appear?
Rewards are determined when the Harrower dies, but the items and experience are released later, as the creature crumbles. Do not leave immediately after the final hit.
What never drops
The Harrower does not directly drop the five Hollowforged equipment pieces. No additional custom loot items are part of its reward pool.
