Useful Info
Swamp drakes are tiny dragons often found in the Swamp which confuse their victims with noxious gas before moving in for the kill. They are resistant to poison, but nothing else.
Spells
| Spell set | |
|---|---|
| Slot1 | Noxious Cloud |
| Slot2 | Noxious Cloud |
| Slot3 | none |
| Slot4 | Noxious Cloud |
| Slot5 | Noxious Cloud |
| Slot6 | none |
Tips & Tricks
- Poison resistance renders their breath harmless, making them little more than flying pests.
- They can be frustratingly lethal when encountered near deep water or lava due to the risk of drowning while confused. If you have to fight them without poison resistance or clarity, use extreme caution.
- Clouds prevent other clouds from forming, so if you have no other resistances, use one of the Swamp's atmospheric floating clouds to keep from being confused.
- Certain entrances to the Orcish Mines have a swamp drake in them. Swamp drakes are far more dangerous at that point in the game, especially if you haven't found poison resistance yet.
