The Digger is a very rare mob in florr.io. It is an ally, meaning you cannot damage it, nor can it damage you. It usually spawns in ant holes/fire ant burrows/termite mounds.

## Appearance

The **Digger** mob represents the player character from digdig.io, appearing as a cameo for florr.io, having a grey body and black sharp ridges around it.

## Stats & Behavior

**Speed:** Normal

**Behavior:** Unlike other mobs, the Digger will target other mobs instead of players. When there are no available mobs to attack, the Digger's face will change to a smile. If the Digger's health is presumably low, its face will change to a sad face and it will run away to an edge and stay there until killed by mobs. *(maybe flees at 5% hp and goes aggro at 10%? values are approximate please verify)*. Its health will drain over time until it dies even when not attacked, lasting around 3 minutes.

## Spawn

The Digger will spawn inside Rare Ant Holes or higher. It has a 2% chance of spawning in a Ant Hole/Fire Ant Burrow/Termite Mound when the first player enters it, with the Digger matching the mobs/hole's rarity. it is an ally mob - which means it harms hostile mobs and can't harm players nor ally spawned mobs.

## Strategy

* Diggers' HP drains over time even when no mobs are attacking them, so reach them as soon as possible if you are informed by other players about their spawning.
* The strategies below apply to the old version where its health doesn't drain.
* As the player who found the digger, you can protect it by killing mobs when it is at low health.
	+ These players as well as other players that protect diggers are known as "Digger Police". They are usually there to troll other players who want the loot.
* As the other players, use honey, bulb, and clover to attract mobs. There may be other utility petals to kill a digger, such as uranium. If you don't kill the Digger that doesn't belong to you, it will be difficult to get any loot from other mobs.
	+ A way to get the digger out of the corners of the map is to push it with non-hostile mobs, aka ally mobs, similar to the digger, which can be spawned with beetle eggs, ant eggs, and sticks. This is quite difficult due to the digger trying to push it's way back and your mobs protecting the digger.

## Trivia

* The Digger is one of the few mobs that is an ally, but it cannot be spawned by eggs or petals unlike Sandstorm,Soldier Ant,or Beetle
	+ The Ants and Beetles spawned from Eggs are considered allies. The same goes for the Sandstorms spawned from Sticks.
		- All ally mobs (also known as friendly mobs) can be healed by leaves, which determines whether or not they are allies, but due to player outrage at other players healing high-rarity diggers and making it impossible to get drops, you can't heal Diggers anymore.
* The Digger is an obvious reference to digdig.io, a game made by the same developers of florr.io.
* Diggers can be slowed by a Legendary or Mythic Spider's webs.
* Diggers flee when at low health. The code does not account for the borders of the map, meaning that diggers often continuously bounce off of the map’s border when at low health.
* It is one of 2 mobs referencing one of M28's games, the other being the Square. The Square is from Diep.io and Arras.io.
* Common and Unusual diggers do not exist. This is because those rarities of ant hole cannot be entered.
* Not including mobs in PvP, Diggers are the only mobs that are in 3 modes (Centralia, Desert, Jungle).
* It has the second highest health, the highest is the Termite Overmind.
* You would need 380 super stingers to kill a super Digger if you could attack it.
* VDK and Guest #1995 are heroes listed in the Changelog for protecting a legendary digger.
* On September 9th 2023, there was a Mythic Digger in Centralia Fields 3 in EU server nicknamed "Jared". It survived for around 15 hours, then it died to a Mythic Bee likely making it the longest lasting Digger in Florr.io history.
* Speaking of Mythic Diggers, a second one has spawned in C3 in US servers.It has been around for 10-19 hours, and currently doesn’t have a name.
* Ironically, Super Diggers went from the longest living Super mobs to one of the shortest living Super mobs after being given health drain.
