Useful Info

They occasionally appear as monsters in the Dungeon Sprint map "Fedhas' Mad Dash."

Tips & Tricks

By the time you see one, burning bushes are barely any threat at all. Deal with the more serious threats first.
Fire resistance will reduce the damage they deal to you while a source of Repel Missiles will make it harder for them to hit you in the first place.

History

In 0.32, burning bushes were replaced with scrub nettles.
Prior to 0.19, they could be found in a rare vault in the Realm of Zot.
Prior to 0.16, burning bushes could be summoned as allies in Zot Defense.

+==Tips & Tricks==
-'''Burning bushes''' are stationary plants that are perpetually on [[fire]], spitting flames at any target that comes near. They can see invisible targets and aggressively defend their territory. Fortunately, they are usually only found as summoned allies in [[Zot Defense]] or as monsters in the [[Dungeon Sprint]] map "Fedhas' Mad Dash," so most players will never need to encounter them. Certain rare vaults in [[the Realm of Zot]] may contain them, however, usually along with [[lightning spire]]s and significantly more dangerous [[oklob plant]]s.
