Useful Info

Fire bats are similar to regular bats, except that their attacks are fire-based and slightly more powerful. Although they pose little physical threat, they often appear in packs. Fire bats are seen in a few vaults, as well as occasionally appearing in the Abyss and often in the Volcano.

Tips & Tricks

Although Magic Dart never misses, it deals such low damage that you'll need to hit them with multiple darts each to take them down. Airstrike, Poisonous Vapours, or Freezing Cloud are all excellent unavoidable ways to take them out quickly.

History

• Prior to 0.28, fire bats were vulnerable to water.
