==Useful Info==
'''Alderkings''' are walking trees that can constrict with their roots and deal damage with both melee and short-range spells. They natively appear in [[Depths]] as an out-of-depth spawn, but they can also spawn in forested, necromantic, and magical vaults in [[Depths]] and rarely [[Crypt]].

 ==Tips & Tricks==
 *Running away from an alderking is not a viable long-term escape plan. They move at normal speed (compared to most characters), and Grasping Roots will force you to waste turns while they close the gap. Confront them from a distance where they aren't deadly, or find a way to get them off of the screen.
-*Even if you are somehow immune to both of their necromantic attacks, their melee is still nothing to brush off; they have comparable damage output to [[iron golem]]s in pure melee damage. Grasping Roots will also decrease your [[evasion]] by 10, making you easier to hit.
+*A [[potion of lignification]] will make you immune to their Siphon Essence without making yourself vulnerable to Dispel Undead.
 *An [[antimagic]] attack will suppress their spells (but not Grasping Roots, which is a natural ability).
 *Alderkings are vulnerable to [[fire]].
