Vitrifying Gaze

Trunk-only: This article pertains to a feature of Crawl which is being tested. It will likely change before the next release, and may even be removed entirely.

Irresistably 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. The effect is similar to two stacks of Harm (+30% incoming damage), without any upside.

Fragile's duration is 10-25 turns per cast, up to 50 turns. For monsters, the status lasts 20-30 turns.

The status does stack with Harm.

The following enemies cast Vitrifying Gaze:
