A '''trample''' attack is a melee attack that not only causes physical damage, but also knocks the victim back one tile; the trampler then occupies the tile previously occupied by its target. Only the largest monsters in the game have a trampling attack. Targets smaller in [[size]] have a greater chance of being knocked back. This knockback does not take effect if it would move the target into an uninhabitable tile (eg, a wall, tree, lava) or into another monster.

''Pay careful attention to trampling creatures when attempting to make an escape via stairways.'' If one is adjacent to you when you try to use the stairway, it will invariably push you off it and then occupy what was to be your escape route.  You are left further injured, with an adjacent enemy, and still in need of an escape.

Version 0.30: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.

A trample attack is a melee attack which knocks the victim back one tile; the trampler then occupies the tile previously occupied by its target. The knockback can't move a target through an impassible (wall, lava, etc.) or occupied tile.

Targets smaller in size than the attacker have a greater chance of being knocked back, and almost all monsters that can trample are among the largest monsters in the game.

The following is a comprehensive list of all monsters that trample:

Tips & Tricks

  • Pay careful attention to tramplers when near staircases. If one is adjacent as you climb up a stair, you can be trampled off, and it will occupy your former escape route.
  • Trample works oddly with Inner Flame. When killing a target with Inner Flame, the victim is knocked back, then the victim explodes, then the trampler moves to the new tile (thus not getting hit by the explosion).
