Frenzy is a status effect which causes monsters to attack anything in sight, friend or foe. When applied to natural, demonic, or holy creatures, frenzy also applies the haste and might status effect. When a source of frenzy is used against the player (typically by a datura dart), only the normal berserk effect is applied.

Sources of Frenzy

Frenzy can be afflicted by:

  • Discord: A level 8 Hexes spell which attempts to frenzy all monsters in sight.
  • Datura-tipped dart: Throwing weapon which can apply the frenzy effect to vulnerable monster upon hit (causes the player to berserk instead).
  • Orbs of mayhem: May frenzy a monster whenever you kill.

History

  • Prior to 0.28, player-frenzied monsters did not provide XP, and holy and demonic monsters did not get 'berserked' (hasted/mighted).
  • Frenzy used to only work against natural creatures, but was expanded in 0.13. The berserking effect of frenzy is limited to natural creatures, however.
