The Blackthorn Juggernaut is a massive armored war construct. It hits hard, stuns with colossal blows, and is a good source of clockwork assemblies.
Overview
- In-game name: a blackthorn juggernaut
- Corpse: a juggernaut corpse
- Behavior: it attacks the nearest target it sees and fights in melee.
- Movement: it is one of the slower creatures in the game (slow speed), so you can outrun it.
- Bard skills: it can't be provoked, calmed with Peacemaking or discorded.
- Notoriety: it always shows as a murderer (red), so anyone can attack it freely.
- Bleed immune: bleed attacks (a weapon special New Bradford enables) don't affect it.

Abilities
Poison immunity
It is immune to all poison, so poisoned weapons, the Poison spell and poison potions do nothing to it.
Colossal blow
Each melee hit has a 30% chance to be a colossal blow: an extra weapon hit, and the target is frozen for 5 seconds ("You have been stunned by a colossal blow!").
Loot
Every juggernaut carries:
- Gold: about 260–350 in total (from its "Rich" loot)
- 1 random gem (amber, amethyst, citrine, diamond, emerald, ruby, sapphire, star sapphire or tourmaline)
It may also carry:
- A magic weapon, armor piece or shield (up to 3 chances, from about 20% down to 1% each)
- A musical instrument (about 1% or less)
- a power crystal (10%)
- a clockwork assembly (40%)
- a music box gear for Dawn's music box (5% chance; 3 in 4 of those are a common tune, the rest uncommon)
- A level 5 treasure map (1% chance)
The power crystals, arcane gems, clockwork assemblies and gears that Exodus constructs and golems carry are the parts a tinker needs to build a golem.
Carving
Use a blade on the corpse to get:
- 1 raw ribs
Tips
- Its colossal blow freezes you for 5 seconds, so don't fight it with low health.
- It's immune to poison and bleeding and can't be discorded, though it can still be provoked.
- It's the best source of clockwork assemblies (40%).
