Tips & Tricks

  • The clouds of bats made by Ravenous Swarm make living player species Drowsy, which will turn into full Sleep after being inflicted enough times. Walking out of these clouds can be quite important, but isn't always possible between nearby terrain and the movement-binding of Grave Claw- deploying Translocations or scrolls of blinking can be crucial for avoiding a final rest.
  • Dominate Undead doesn't matter a lot versus necromancy casters in Crypt, but it will affect both Infestation death scarabs and allies gained through Yredelemnul, and the rare appearances in Depths vaults can catch the rest of one's undead army. Leaving them behind elsewhere on the floor can be a better idea than fighting one's own charmed allies.
  • Player undead are immune to bat cloud sleep, but Dominate Undead will vexed them also with no line-of-fire required, so stacking on Willpower becomes absolutely crucial.


History

  • Vampire bloodprinces were added in 0.33.
