Collector

Behaviour and Tactics
The Collector has two attacks:


 * Jar: The Collector leaps into the "ceiling" (or floor above), causing glass jars to rain down on The Knight. The glass jars fall from random positions in the ceiling. The jars do not break when they hit The Knight but they do contact damage. Instead, the jars shatter when they hit the ground and each glass jar randomly contains 1 of 3 enemies: Vengeflies, Baldurs and Aspid Hunters. These enemies will attack once freed from their jar. This attack randomly involves 1-3 glass jars and can happen multiple times, freeing more and more enemies (though no more than 3). There is a noise for each glass jar that will be coming down. This noise does not happen before each jar falls (for example, if 3 jars were going to fall, the noise occurs 3 times before any jars fall). This noise sounds like wooden wind chimes collapsing. When all of the glass jars are done falling, The Collector drops back down.
 * Grab: The Collector will leap towards The Knight's position and make grabbing motions, dealing contact damage.

The Collector erratically jumps around the room, avoiding attacks. The main threat in the battle comes from the Jar Attack.

As the fight progresses, the Collector will get faster and more aggressive. Be careful with healing, as the Collector is fast, and its movement pattern can be difficult to read. Be wary of its Grab attack, although it does not use it too often.

It is easy to damage the Collector, getting three or four hits in as it stays close to the ground and rarely performs grab attacks. It is recommended to get the Coiled Nail first as this makes it possible to kill the enemies it spawns in one hit, although equipping Fragile Strength when using the Channeled Nail is also a viable strategy. Nail Arts maximise the damage done to The Collector.

Location
The Collector is locked in the Tower of Love, which can only be accessed using the Love Key, found in the Queen's Gardens. The Tower can only be entered from the deep elevator shaft between Kingdom's Edge and the City of Tears. An exit to King's Station can be accessed after flipping a switch.

Trivia

 * Defeating it rewards the Collector's Map, which will show the locations of Grubs that are not yet rescued on the map.Collectors map LB.png
 * The Collector is made of Void, and seems to be vaguely similar to a Kingsmould. Despite this, it is unclear if the Collector has any relation them.
 * Although made of Void, The Collector, due to unknown reasons, is exempt from the effect Void Heart has on other Void beings.
 * If the player dies to the Collector, upon their return, they will find their Shade trapped in a glass jar.
 * The Collector, while not giving the player SOUL when hit with the nail, does give SOUL when the Weavers hit him.
 * Striking the Collector with the Dream Nail will reveal that it has an obsession with protecting and giving creatures a safe space.
 * Judging from the jars it uses, along with the three Grubs in its area and the map with Grub locations, the Collector is presumed to be responsible for all the imprisoned Grubs throughout Hallownest.
 * While the Hunter's Journal states it wanted to "preserve" the Grubs, it is unknown why it took a particular liking to them, nor why it left most of them in various locations while keeping all of its other "specimens" within the Tower of Love.
 * Vitruvian grub.png Within the Tower of Love there is a secret area that can be accessed by jumping into a hidden gap within the ceiling along the hallway of the grubs. This reveals a mysterious piece of art known only as the "Vitruvian Grub".
 * When the Collector fought in Godhome, a distorted version of "Gods & Glory" is played, in reference to the original fight having a distorted version of "Decisive Battle".
