==Useful Info==
'''Meliai''' are fey bee-priestesses that always come in threes.

==Tips & Tricks==
*They're kind of like [[orc priest]]s stuck to [[killer bee]]s. Smiting, high speed, and a poisonous sting.
*Like many insects, they're weak to poison.

==History==
Meliai were introduced in [[0.19]].

 **A group of 3 meliai is equivalent to 6 orc priests, and closer to 8 orc priests in practice (as meliai cast Smiting ~40% more often than priests).
 *Meliai are fast, high EV, but frail threats. The following can be good ways to take them out:
-**Attacks that never miss. Things like [[lightning rod]], [[Lee's Rapid Deconstruction]], and [[Freezing Cloud]] are strong AOE options that always hit. A [[tin of tremorstones]], while it can miss, is very accurate and likely to kill.
+**Strong AOE options that never miss, including [[lightning rod]]s, [[Lee's Rapid Deconstruction]], and [[Freezing Cloud]] . A [[tin of tremorstones]], while it can miss, is very accurate and likely to kill (if you have decent [[Evocations]]).
 **Like many insects, they're weak to poison. [[Olgreb's Toxic Radiance]] may prove extremely helpful if they appear in a vault full of other bees.
 **They have poor [[willpower]]. A [[wand of charming]] is very effective, though [[wand of paralysis|paralysis]] is nice to use too.
