Cigotuvi's Dreadful Rot was a level 2 Necromancy/Air Magic/Poison Magic spell which created a cloud of miasma on your tile.
Hedge Wizards started with this spell in their libraries.
Useful Info
Creates a cloud of miasma on the user's tile. This slows, heavily poisons, and damages most creatures that step inside. Undead and nonliving monsters are unaffected, as are those with miasma resistance. You are immune to this cloud while you cast this spell, however you must immediately move out of the cloud to avoid suffering its effects.
Each cast drains about 9% of the player's max HP, which can be restored by earning XP.[1]
Strategy
Most monsters in the early game won't willingly walk through the miasma cloud. In a hallway, you can create a cloud, then attack behind it for a few turns. It can also be used to escape foes, if used in a hallway.
Tips & Tricks
- Works well with Mephitic Cloud, as confused monsters can fall into the cloud. Can also be combined with Lesser Beckoning or a potion of attraction for the same result.
- Undead and nonliving monsters are unaffected by miasma. Also watch out for monsters with ranged attacks
History
- Removed in 0.32 and replaced by the level 4 spell Cigotuvi's Putrefaction. Hedge Wizards now start with the new spell Grave Claw instead.
- This spell was added in 0.30, replacing both Corpse Rot and Conjure Flame.
