Attacking the Strange Ox in Act One will cause its caretaker and neighboring oxen to become hostile. Killing it at this point will only provide the Shapeshifter's Boon Ring as loot.
Attacking the Strange Ox in Act One will cause its caretaker and neighboring oxen to become hostile. The ox drops pools of [[acid]] when damaged; on death, it drops a {{SAI|Glyph of Warding: Acid}} that immediately explodes for {{DamageText|8d8|acid}} damage. Killing the ox at this point yields the {{RarityItem|Shapeshifter's Boon Ring}}.


Note that even if you choose to [[Raid the Emerald Grove]] and attack the refugees, the Strange Ox disappears along with the other oxen when the grove goes into siege preparation mode, and will survive to be encountered later.
