Barbs is a status effect. Each time a barbed creature moves, it takes damage equal to 2d(2 + times_barbs_inflicted) damage (max. 2d6).[1] When rampaging, each tile moved will inflict damage.
The barbs remain in their target for 4-8 turns, adding 2-4 turns per infliction of barbs (max. 12 turns at time).[2] Remaining in place (no matter what is done) has 100% chance of decreasing the duration. While moving, there is only a 33% chance to decrease the barbs duration. It is possible to rid yourself of barbs by moving, but doing so will incur significant damage.
Inflicted by:
- Barbs attack flavour
- Throw Barbs spell
- Wu Jian's wrath (lasting 5-10 turns)
Insubstantial players are immune to the barbs status, but damage from the Throw Barbs spell itself is not ignored.
History
- The barbs attack flavour was added in 0.28.
- Prior to 0.22, you had to specifically wait (with '5, s, or .) in order to have a 100% chance to decrement the duration. Also, the base duration was a bit shorter: 3-6 turns instead of 4-8 turns.
- Barbs was added in 0.14.
