Attacks and Abilities

Needle Blights, like its brethren the Shadow-Cursed Vine Blight and Shadow-Cursed Shambling Mound, conceal themselves within the surrounding vegetation in order to ambush passersby. The player must pass a difficult Perception check (DC: 30) to spot these ambush parties.

Needle Blights are small, fragile, and numerous, acting as frontline enemies during their encounters. Their Needle Burst Needle Burst on death can chain together if many blights are caught in the radius, dealing massive damage to enemies and allies alike.

They apply Shadow-Cursed Vines Shadow-Cursed Vines to the terrain surrounding their corpse on death.

Expel the needles from your body towards a creature.
