Two Things I've Learned Lately

  1. Corrosion is really dangerous. I had a TrBe that was cruising through Lair, Dungeon, Orc and Swamp, and then it was completely blown up by an entropy weaver and two redbacks. I didn't try to bail until it was too late since I had no idea that high corrosion would wreck my defenses that badly so quickly!
  2. Steam is powerful! I just cleared the whole gnoll castle vault with a HEFE using just Flame Tongue and the moat.

Tip: you can cancel corrosion by potion of cancellation/yara's violent unravelling

Re: Two Things I've Learned Lately

Can purple draconians breathe on themselves to cancel?

Re: Two Things I've Learned Lately

From my experience, yes.

But I'm not sure whether there are recent related trunk patches.

Re: Two Things I've Learned Lately

Wait you can cast Yara's on yourself?
