Useful Info
Bloated husks are suprisingly fast corpses of the Swamp. When destroyed, or when they get close enough, they will explode nosily in a 2-tile radius.
Tips & Tricks
- Taking them out with ranged attacks or spells are obiviously recommended to avoid their explosion.
- Javelins or a wand of acid are particularlly effective, even at low skill With the right arrangment, you can explode other monsters isntead of you!
- Husks aren't particularlly dangerous on their own, and high-bulk characters have even less to fear. However, beware of the loud noise attacting other monsters!
