Irresistibly renders a creature's body structure as brittle and fragile as glass, increasing the damage they take from all sources. It requires line of sight but not line of fire.

Vitrifying Gaze is a monster-only spell that irresistibly applies Fragile status to its target. Fragile increases all damage you take by +50%. This stacks with any modifiers from Harm.

Against players, Fragile's duration is 4-8 turns per cast, stacking up to 50 turns. Against monsters, the status lasts 4-8 turns too.

The following enemies cast Vitrifying Gaze:

• G Glass eye
