Mist Monsters

Mist Monsters are one of the two types of Monsters in Fortnite: Save the World. They are the stronger form of Monsters. Similar to Husk Monsters, Mist Monsters have an anthropomorphic appearance. However, their bodies are usually twisted past recognition, barely resembling humans, with elongated, oversized or stick-like body parts or appendages, alongside numerous eyes and swirls surrounding their bodies. Their color scheme is similar to that of The Storm.
The Taker and Blaster can spawn in Shadow Orbs at cave entrances. Eliminating them grants you loot.
