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: Mephitic Cloud
Tips & Tricks
- 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.
