Trivia

• Despite it being a Turtle Shell, it is dropped by the Giant Tortoise. The only turtles in the game are the pet turtle and the turtle mount.
• Even though it has a much higher chance of being dropped than the Bezoar, it doesn't drop quite as frequently, which is due to the Giant Tortoise's low spawnrate.
