| A scroll that surrounds its user with a flight of beautiful butterflies. |
Reading a scroll of butterflies creates a mass of friendly butterflies.
This scroll is mutually exclusive with the scroll of fog; only one of the two scrolls may spawn in any given game.
Tips and Tricks
- Butterflies are great at blocking attacks; though they are evasive, for better or worse (monsters with ranged weapons may miss your butterflies entirely and hit you anyways, for example).
- Butterflies may also distract enemies, and swapping places with one will allow you to disengage without fear of attacks of opportunity.
- Like all summons, they can be affected by a scroll of immolation, but their sporadic movement means that you always run the risk of taking a few fiery explosions to the face.
History
- Scrolls of butterflies were introduced in 0.29. They replicate the effects of the removed spell Summon Butterflies, though the scroll spawns more butterflies.
