| ==Useful Info==
| |
| '''Red wasps''' are some of the most dangerous flying insects. Their [[poison]]ous stings can also [[paralyze]] you, leaving you defenseless unless you have [[poison]] resistance or an [[amulet of stasis]]. They can be found in [[the Depths]], [[the Swamp]], and [[the Spider's Nest]].
| |
| | |
| ==Tips & Tricks==
| |
| *Never fight them in an area that allows you to be surrounded. Paralysis is bad enough when you only have to worry about one wasp.
| |
| *You can summon your own red wasps by drawing the [[Foxfire card]]. Summoned red wasps are immensely powerful against most natural monsters and even some unnatural ones. Two particularly good locations for creating your own swarm are [[the Vaults]]:5 opening and while fighting [[Antaeus]].
| |
| *If you encounter one and have no poison resistance, zapping it with a [[wand of polymorph other]] may be a good idea. They are quite likely to turn into something less dangerous. Their mediocre [[magic resistance]] also makes other [[status effect]]-inflicting [[wand]]s, as well as most [[Hexes]], quite effective against them.
| |
| | |
| ==History==
| |
| Red wasps were retired in [[0.16]], and replaced with [[hornet]]s.
| |
| | |
| Prior to [[0.8]], their paralysis effect could stack. They were near-certain death to anyone stung without the proper defenses.
