Useful Info
Fire bats are similar to regular bats, except that their attacks are fire-based and slightly more powerful. Although they pose little physical threat, they often appear in packs. Fire bats occasionally appear in the Abyss and often in the Volcano. They can also be found in a few fire- or bat-themed vaults.
If you find a fire bat in the early Dungeon, it is almost always part of a vault. This fire bat has a HD of only 1, so it is significantly weaker than the regular monster.
Tips & Tricks
- Although Magic Dart never misses, it deals such low damage that you'll need to hit them with multiple darts each to take them down. Airstrike, Poisonous Vapours, or Freezing Cloud are all excellent unavoidable ways to take them out quickly.
History
- Prior to 0.28, fire bats were vulnerable to water.
