Description
| Potion of Invisibility | ||
| Drinking this potion will render you temporarily invisible. While invisible, enemies will be unable to see you. Attacking an enemy, as well as using a wand or a scroll before [sic] enemy's eyes, will dispel the effect. | ||
Obtaining
The Potion of Invisibility can be found randomly at regular depths (not at Boss depths), and in Shops, or as a random drop from Dwarf warlock (6.62% chance) or brewed through alchemy. In addition, there is always a Potion of Invisibility at a depth with a flooded vault.
When drank
Drinking a potion of Invisibility
The Invisible buff is applied to the Hero for a duration of 15 turns, enabling him/her to not be seen, and thus attacked, by enemies.
If an enemy is struck, or a wand/scroll is used in an enemy's field-of-view, the invisibility ends, and the Hero will be detectable again.
Invisibility wouldn't be lost by throwing missile weapons (i.e. the Boomerang), or potions, at enemies, until Invisible's full duration ends.
When thrown
- Throwing confirmation
Are you sure you want to throw it? In most cases it makes sense to drink it.
- When breaking
The flask shatters and <potion color> liquid splashes harmlessly
Tips
- If not within an enemy's field-of-view, reading a scroll, or zapping a wand, will not prematurely end the Invisible buff.
- As one of the dungeon's "forced items", the Potion of Invisibility is primarily used for safely bypassing the Giant Piranha, which guard an item in a Flooded Vault.
- Potions of Invisibility can be used to retreat from standard/rare/special enemies, or regroup from a boss.
- This is an essential combat item for the Sniper sub-class, especially for most Boss Battles.
