What to know
- Mosshorn is a passive mammal creature found in the overworld
- You can obtain Mosshorn Milk by interacting with it using a container
- Drinking the milk temporarily turns you into a Mosshorn
- The transformation is short but useful for exploration and experimentation
Hytale includes several transformation-style mechanics, and Mosshorn Becoming is one of the more unique ones currently known. Instead of relying on alchemy workbenches or morphing potions, this transformation is tied directly to interacting with a creature in the world. By collecting and drinking Mosshorn Milk, you can briefly take on the form of the Mosshorn itself.
This guide explains what Mosshorns are, how to get Mosshorn Milk, what happens when you drink it, and why you might want to use this transformation.
Please note that this guide is based on popular discussion in the Hytale community, subject to “turning into a Mosshorn.” However, there is no official confirmation if this exists in the Hytale vanilla. If you come across this, do let us know in the comments!
What is a Mosshorn in Hytale
Mosshorn is a passive beast creature that inhabits natural regions of the Hytale world. It does not attack players unless provoked and is generally calm in behavior.
Mosshorn creature stats
| Stat | Value |
|---|---|
| Health | 124 |
| Physical damage | 12 |
| Activity cycle | Diurnal (active during the day) |
| Combat style | Direct |
| Temperament | Passive |
While Mosshorns are not aggressive, they are still large and sturdy creatures with high health, making them noticeable in the environments they roam.
Drops if defeated
Although Mosshorns are passive, they can be defeated for resources:
| Drop | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Raw Wildmeat | 4–8 |
| Heavy Hide | 1–2 |
However, defeating a Mosshorn is not required for the becoming mechanic and is generally discouraged if your goal is transformation.
How Mosshorn Becoming works
Mosshorn Becoming is a temporary transformation effect. When you drink Mosshorn Milk, your character changes into a Mosshorn for a limited duration.
This process is different from Morphing Potions because:
- It does not require an Alchemist’s Workbench
- It comes directly from creature interaction
- It uses a raw animal product instead of crafted alchemy
The transformation is meant to be situational rather than permanent.
How to get Mosshorn Milk
To trigger Mosshorn Becoming, you first need Mosshorn Milk.
Finding a Mosshorn
Mosshorns spawn naturally in outdoor biomes and are active during daylight hours. Because they are passive, you can approach them safely without initiating combat.
Look for:
- Large mammal creatures roaming open terrain
- Forested or natural regions
- Areas with other passive wildlife
Once you locate one, you can proceed to collect milk.
Collecting Mosshorn Milk
Equip an appropriate container used for collecting liquids. Approach the Mosshorn carefully. Since it is passive, it will not attack. Interact with the Mosshorn to obtain Mosshorn Milk.
The Mosshorn is not harmed during this process, allowing you to collect milk without killing the creature.
How to become a Mosshorn
Once you have Mosshorn Milk in your inventory, the transformation process is simple. Place Mosshorn Milk in your hotbar.
Consume or drink the milk. Your character transforms into a Mosshorn for a short duration.
During this time, your appearance changes completely, reflecting the Mosshorn’s form.
What happens after you become a Mosshorn
While transformed, you temporarily take on aspects of the Mosshorn creature. Although not all mechanical effects are fully documented yet, the transformation is expected to reflect the creature’s nature.
Commonly observed or implied effects include:
- Altered movement and hitbox
- Increased physical presence
- Creature-style animations
- Temporary loss of normal equipment access
The transformation ends automatically after a short period, returning you to your normal form. Mosshorn Becoming is not designed as a combat-focused transformation. Instead, it shines in utility and experimentation.
You may want to use it for:
- Exploring creature-based mechanics
- Testing environmental interactions
- Roleplay or immersion
- Understanding wildlife behavior from a new perspective
Because Mosshorns are passive, this transformation is more about presence and interaction than damage output.
What to expect after turning to a Mosshorn
- It is not permanent
- It does not replace morphing potions
- It does not unlock new crafting recipes directly
- It does not turn Mosshorn into a combat pet
