New little pleasure: putting an Arcane Vortex on an ooze (or other creature which splits when damaged).

Makes me wish there were a Rod of Summon Hostile Clear Brittle Ooze.

Try disease or other DoT's. Hit, infect, split, the split oozes are infected... just sit and laugh as it splits and dies.

As for your brittle ooze, you could always take that character to sludgenest and just have fun with it.

It's not just about having the ooze die. That's nice, but there's lots of ways to do that, as you point out.

It's the up to TWENTY OVERLAPPING EXPLOSIONS PER SQUARE after the ooze fills all the space in a room and expires.

That can turn into some serious damage for everything in the room with the ooze-bomb swarm.

Destabilise works too. :lol:
My feedback meter decays into coding. Give me feedback and I make mods.

Awesome, thanks. Gotta try that next.

I just killed a gang of bandits with ONE WHITE OOZE and Arcane Vortex. Talk about efficient use of Mana!

I bow to your superior skills, and will attempt greatly to emulate you the next time I enter the sludgenest. Oh, that's going to be GOOD. Had not considered the multi-explosion aspect... Dear god, the stacked damage!

Yeah it's hella fun. Enjoy!

I take no credit for the "idea", though... it's just something which I noticed, rather than something which I planned. :)

I like firing Pinning Arrow at a drake which just activated Lightning Speed. Then I stand there and insult it.

The beauty of Destabilize is.you can cast Gravity Well on top of it. "Please, gentlemen, don't move yet... the photo is almost done!" 8)

Works like a charm... except that one time when one of the "bandits" grabed me to him the very moment a dozen oozes detonated in the room. Probably one of the most brutal death I ever had.
