 *Be wary about casting Foxfire around fire-resistant or -immune monsters, as foxfires make no effort to avoid foes they cannot harm.
 *Because foxfires technically count as creatures, this spell can help block line of effect to monsters with dangerous spells like [[Banishment]], [[Petrify]], [[Malmutate]], or [[Orb of Destruction]]. However, this is not as effective as simply [[summon]]ing a meat shield, as foxfires move quickly and erratically and disappear once they strike something.

 ==Useful Info==
-Foxfire attempts to create 2 [[foxfire (monster)|foxfire entities]] on empty tiles (no monsters, [[wall]]s, etc.) adjacent to the caster. If there are no valid tiles, they fail to spawn. Foxfire entities travel at [[Movement#Monster Speed|speed]] 30 towards nearby monsters. They move like any other monster, so they need an unobstructed path to a target. On impact, it deals [[evasion|unavoidable]] [[fire]] damage. Foxfires [[fly]] and can [[see invisible]].

 Foxfires dissipate harmlessly after 8 actions without doing anything, if they leave your [[LOS]], or if the caster moves onto its tile. As conjured entities, you can create Foxfires under [[Okawaru]] or [[Ru]]'s Sacrifice Love.

-*Despite their low damage, Foxfire can remain useful for some time - it can't miss and can target invisible creatures. Many threats up to [[the Lair]] can be dealt with by standing in the open and conjuring a stream of foxfires. hey falter against creatures with high [[AC]], as two foxfires check AC twice.

 *Like many fire spells, Foxfire creates [[steam]] when striking creatures that are in [[water]], making it useful for fighting early swimming enemies like [[adder]]s or [[electric eel]]s. Conversely, they dissipate [[freezing cloud]]s on impact.

 In the leftmost scenario, using Foxfire does nothing. In the middle and right scenarios, only 1 foxfire can hit the monster. If you're stuck adjacent to a monster in a corridor (and can't use [[Scorch]]), the best thing you can do is stand in a corner or intersection, where foxfires can move diagonally towards the target. Also, getting surrounded by monsters can lead you to the same situation - avoid this whenever possible.
