Useful Info
Yellow wasps are fast, flying insects with an especially nasty poisonous sting; along with dealing damage over time, it also slows you down until you're completely paralyzed. They are thankfully rare, only occasionally appearing in the Dungeon, the Lair, and the Swamp (often emerging from treants or as spriggan rider mounts).
Tips & Tricks
- They're almost harmless if you have poison resistance, but if not, try to take them out from range. They don't have that much HP by the time you encounter them.
- Alternatively, you can hit them with a wand of polymorph other to turn them into one of the less threatening flying insects.
- Yellow wasps are vulnerable to poison, so Mephitic Cloud is almost guaranteed to render them confused and easy to defeat.
