Tips & Tricks

• Their spells can bounce off walls, so you need to be careful about your position to avoid being multizapped.
• While they are immune to most elements, electricity deals full damage to them, so a lightning rod is effective against them. Arcjolt is another good way to take advantage of this, as it ignores EV.
• Even if rare, they can spawn in some vaults as early as Dungeon:11. If you see one and don't have good resistances (or are not willing to use a Potion of resistance), consider leaving it for later.

History

• In 0.32, thermic dynamos were added to the game.
