==Description==
| stunimmunity = 1
The '''Hammerhead Matriarch''' is a large dark red squid-like creature with 4 arms attached to its torso. Its head is a large, fragile sac of eggs.<br>
| poisonvulnerability = 0.5
The '''Hammerhead Spawn''' hatching from those eggs have the shape of a standard [[Hammerhead]], only much smaller and sharing the Matriarch's dark-red shade.


==In-game==
| limb1 = Head
The Hammerhead Matriarch is not agressive until provoked and will flee on sight of a submarine. Upon being attacked however, it will retaliate with its only attack, a suicidal, devastating assault on the submarine's hull. The impact makes its egg sac burst, releasing 30 hammerhead spawn.<br>
| limb1internaldamage = 2

Most of its body has 90% armor against all {{Hyperlink|Internal Damage|20|Affliction Internal Damage}} types and 80% resistance against {{Hyperlink|Bleeding|20|Affliction Bleeding}}, however the Matriarch's head takes 10 times the {{Hyperlink|Gunshot Wound|20|Affliction Gunshot Wound}}s and {{Hyperlink|Lacerations|20|Affliction Lacerations}}.

Hammerhead Spawn are weak and may not be hard to kill individually, but their numbers can quickly become problematic to an unprepared crew. Should other hostile creatures still be attacking the submarine, such as [[Hammerhead]]s that were defending the Matriarch, dealing with both inside and outside creatures can be a challenge. The spawn are easily dispatched with melee weapons like wrenches or knives, and incendiary weapons are highly effective. Being unable to move or attack outside of water, fixing the breaches and pumping the water out will leave them defenseless and quickly kill them.

The Hammerhead Matriarch is a Europan creature related to the Hammerhead.

Description

The Hammerhead Matriarch is a large, dark red squid-like creature with four arms attached to its torso. Despite the sharp appearance of these arms, the Hammerhead Matriarch is a docile creature. It avoids combat wherever possible, only responding aggressively when provoked. Its head is a large, fragile sac of eggs.

In-Game

The Hammerhead Matriarch is not aggressive until provoked. Upon being attacked however, it will retaliate with its only form of attack; a suicidal, devastating assault on the Submarine's hull. The impact makes its egg sac burst, releasing 30 Hammerhead Spawn. The attack allows the Hammerhead Spawns entry into the sub, utilising swarm tactics to overwhelm Humans inside the submarine.

Combat Strategies

Due to the docile nature of the Hammerhead Matriarch, it is entirely viable to completely avoid it. Typically, it only becomes hostile due to misfires by a gunner, or if the player intentionally shoots it. If intentional combat is the preferred strategy, the Railgun will immediately kill it. It is not advised to use the Coilgun as it will only anger it, being unable to kill it quick enough. The Pulse Laser using Tri-Pulse Ammunition can also quickly kill it, however only in closer ranges as all three shots would land.

It is not advised to attempt to combat the Hammerhead Matriarch with melee weapons.
