Brood Mother Basilisk - Petrifaction gaze?

Unread post by Gaxim »

In the tarpits, is it intended that the Brood Mother Basilisk is able to use Petrifaction gaze?

Yes. :twisted:

Some players said the area was too easy, while others liked the 'no petrification' change. So I compromised. The Brood Mother is the only Basilisk that has Petrification. She's a boss type, so she's somewhat stronger... But her spawn location is... :character-grover:

She is nasty and has a quick respawn.

Imagine that...the underdark, dangerous again.

Though I suppose potions to protect against the gaze should be made available (at a considerable cost) from the potion merchant. If there was a way to profit from it, the drow would certainly jump at the chance.

Just checked, there's no scrolls and potions for the following spells in UD:

Create Undead
Lesser Restoration
Protection from Petrification
Restoration

And probably more. Let me know if I missed it and there's actually a UD merchant selling those. Would love to purchase them.

I am guessing inquiring about these scrolls from the surface (much larger population) would be a good roleplay reason to be on the surface?
