Useful Info

Plants are harmless impediments which leave no corpses and are worth no XP. They can be found almost anywhere, but are extremely common in the Swamp, the Shoals, and the Lair. Ranged attacks and single-target beam-type spells cannot pass through them.

Variant Plants

There are several alternate versions of plants. Although they have different names and appearances, they have identical stats.

Plant crypt.png Withered plants are a common sight on undead-themed floors and near some Yredelemnul altars.

A plant whose life has been drained away, but with its physical form still intact. It looks like it died many years ago.

Petrified plant.png Petrified plants can be found near catoblepas dens in Lair:6.

An ordinary plant that has been turned to stone.

Demonic plant.png Demonic plants are found in a few demon-themed vaults, most notably the Lugonu-corrupted Ecumenical Temple.

A demonic mockery of a plant, covered with mysterious appendages and writhing tentacles. It appears to be harmless.

Tips & Tricks

  • Worshipers of Fedhas Madash have a very different relationship with plants than all other characters. They can step and fire through them as though their tiles were empty. With more piety, they can summon plant allies and transform dungeon walls into plants.

History

  • Prior to 0.11, plants were frequently used as targets of unidentified weapons, as one could identify weapon enchantments by repeatedly hitting monsters. In 0.11, skill-based enchantment identification was changed to be instantaneous, making them little more than obstacles to non-Fedhas worshipers.
  • Prior to 0.9's XP system-overhaul, plants made excellent targets for victory dancing.
