Useful Info

Holy swine are one of the least dangerous (and least common) holy monsters. Apart from their one-tile halo auras, holy-branded melee attacks, and fast movement speed, they are actually fairly boring opponents. They are occasionally found in Pandemonium, and are created when a holy monster is affected by the Porkalator spell.

History

• Prior to 0.15, they could be peaceful toward worshipers of good gods.
