Tips & Tricks
- They are slow, so it is easy to retreat if you can't fight one yet.
- They are vulnerable to poison, so kiting one around while throwing poisoned darts at a distance is a good way to avoid ever getting hit.
- Moving around will end the fire more quickly.
- Bombardier beetles' Pyre Arrow is a natural ability, so you can't use silence to prevent them from casting.
History
- Bombardier beetles were added in 0.31.
