Useful Info

River rats are slightly tougher than regular rat and leave poisonous corpses, but are still pretty weak. They can be found in small numbers in the Sewer, and in large swarms throughout the Lair.

Tips & Tricks

They tend to come in packs, but since they have no resistances, standard crowd control tactics will work. Although individually harmless, a swarm of them surrounding a character with low defenses may find themselves getting nibbled to death faster than they can eradicate the pests.

History

Green rats will be replaced with river rats in 0.16.
