Ok, the gnoll then just feels like any random magic enemy now. That's good. Ik sungrass seeds are powerful, but: 1st: as I said before, I think snakes having a fifty fifty of dropping either sungrass or starfruit is more balanced, but if they drop both, then it wouldn't make sense that the flies would only drop a sungrass too. And also, flies regenerating hp seems like a really powerful enemy. They already have too much hp, and if you don't know that you can go on a corridor to prevent them dividing, they might fuck you up fast. That's why I think a more powerful reward would be more fitting. I know sungrass is really powerful, but health potions are even more powerful. That's why I think that for a powerful enemy a powerful reward must await, and sunfruits are great, but healing potions seem better. Ok, yeah, thanks for explaining, I thought it was like the new cursed wand effect where it hits everything in a three by three area. If the paralysis is small (1 turn) it could be balanced enough. I recommend going for the DM 300 turret's pattern, or if that's not enough for you, the DM 300 badder bosses turret, which would be also a way to train players without them knowing how to fight DM 300's badder bosses turret. With that said, I think maybe a scroll of identify would be a better reward, although the scroll of retribution could also be a decent enough reward. Not too upset with that one now that I knot it's dodgeable at melee distance. Ok, yes, guaranteed potion for six alchemy energy... But still underwhelming. What would you rather, a healing potion or a purity potion? Also, it's a rare enemy, you only find those, if lucky, once in a run. Gotta understand not only the power but also the rarity of rare enemies, and the potion of purity isn't just worthy of that rarity. Ik all shaman have a rare chance of dropping a wand, but just corruption? Come on... Same way all thiefs got a chance of dropping a random amulet or ring and the rare thief drops one, this could be the same case (not just a wand of corrosion... For some reason) It's also fairer this way. The spider just seems like a suicidal spider to me, any normal spider would be harder to kill because of the flee mechanic than this one and I'd be happier to see one of this than a normal spider cuz of that. Regarding its drops, same thing as the bat, 3 meat or phantom piranha would be better drops. Yeah, like regular ghouls but worse, because of the buffs and full health thing... Unstable brew... I think of it same as the bat or the spider. Underwhelming. Check the vanilla rare mobs, they all drop something substantial, something worth fighting them for (except the tormented spirit) like the second best scroll in the game (transmutation) or the third best potion in the game (experience) or a scroll of remove curse (fourth best scroll). Substantial and important stuff, not like, a 10 alchemy energy unstable brew. Normal ghouls drop gold, right? Make this one drop 10 piles of gold, five per ghoul, something useful, powerful and even kinda game changing. Same drop thing with the warlock. An unstable scroll's just not important enough to justify a rare enemy. Golem's sharpnel bomb's alright, there's already a rare enemy that drops a DM 300 fragment, and the bomb requires one; and the golem seems like a fun idea. The warning thing balances the eye out, I think, and it is way better than ming vision. With its drops... Same thing as bat, spider, ghoul and warlock.
