 *Unlike [[Malmutate]], [[Corrupting Pulse]] doesn't require a line of fire. It affects all nearby opponents, so you cannot hide from the spell behind allies or other monsters.
-*The waves of bad mutations affect your allies too, reducing their speed, AC, and damage output. Melee characters should watch out for a sudden [[Berserk (mutation)|Berserkitis]]!
+*Make sure to check your mutations. Melee characters should watch out for a sudden [[Berserk (mutation)|Berserkitis]], while any character should beware of [[No Unsafe Scrolls]] and [[No Unsafe Potions]].
 *Undead will suffer temporary stat drain instead of mutations, with a coinflip chance of nothing happening. They should hence be careful of [[stat zero]].

-'''Wretched stars''' are the chaos-spewing embodiments of [[Lugonu]]'s realm, inflicting temporary (transient) [[bad mutations]] on everything nearby. These [[mutations]] will go away on their own after you have killed a few monsters, though monsters in [[the Abyss]], where they'll most likely be found, don't count. They also occasionally blast you with non-elemental [[Conjurations]]. In addition to the Abyss, they can be found in [[Lehudib's Moon Base]].
