Queen's Gland

Queen's Gland is a Boss item in Risk of Rain 2.

This item can only drop after defeating the Queen Beetle, replacing some of the green items that spawn from the teleporter.

The Gland spawns a Beetle Guard to fight on your side. This Beetle deals 300% damage and can spawn every 30 seconds, provided the previous one has died. This Beetle can block shots, and since it often runs in to the thick of battle, it might end up sponging damage.

The Engineer's Auto-Turrets do not inherit this item. It is not visually present on Turrets, either.
