Random acid damage from where?

Post by Hinty » Tue Aug 28, 2018 4:00 am

So, not sure if this is a bug or a feature I am unaware of hence posting here not bugs.

Twice now while crawling the sewers of Cordor my feylock has gained a 1d4 Acid damage temp buff on their melee weapon. But I did nothing to aply it. The first time it happened was when I used an eldritch blast in a tough fight, and I thought maybe it was related, but then, many many fights later it never happened. Now it has happened again, this time after casting a sleep spell targeted at the ground, so no blast. Might have happened just before i cast, as the spell was an opening move, but cant be sure.

So basicly, is this normal? If so should I know where it comes from or is it FoiG?

I think that killing certain slimes at times gives this effect.

No source.

That could well be the cause.. First time I was using my bow most of the time, so wouldn't have noticed until later when I switched to my dagger.. second time there was definitely some slime killing around about that time, and I have been avoiding the slimes most of the time what with them being mind immune.

Thanks, think that's very likely to be the solution.

Yep, I've noticed it too! And it saved my day because I was able to kill the sewer troll with my temporary acidified sword.

Kill a few slimes. Then try to kill those nasty trolls. ;)
