Useful Info

Black mambas are very fast snakes with painful poisonous bites. Although not the deadliest of the snakes, they are hard to escape and can be very dangerous to squishy characters when first encountered. They can be found in the Lair and the Snake Pits.

Tips & Tricks

Adventurers should be cautious around this creature if they lack poison resistance. They have low magic resistance, which makes them quite susceptible to enchantments, but their high EV will most likely give you headaches.
