Back Tentacles

An uncommon neck armor from The End, part of the Tentacle set. Provides +2 Shield and automatically counterattacks ranged attackers with a tentacle slap whenever they hit you. A strong anti-ranged piece in the game's final chapter, where ranged enemies are common — the auto-counterattack turns their offense into a disadvantage. Pairs with the Head Tentacle (Entangle on basic attacks) and Face Tentacle (33% Entangle on basic attacks) for a full Tentacle set focused on control and retaliation.

The auto-counterattack against ranged enemies triggers without spending your action economy — any ranged hit you receive automatically generates a free melee tentacle slap in return. In The End, which features high-damage ranged enemies, this converts enemy aggression into self-inflicted damage. The +2 Shield gives a small buffer that makes the counterattack valuable across more attacks before health is threatened.

Back Tentacles is the neck slot anchor of the Tentacle set and is particularly valuable as a standalone piece against ranged enemy encounters. Pair it with the Head Tentacle and Face Tentacle to complement the anti-ranged counterattack with Entangle control on your basic attacks, creating both defensive retaliation and offensive lockdown. A reliable uncommon for The End's final-floor challenges.
