Daeva

Useful Info

Daevas are militant servants of the Shining One, wielding weapons of holy wrath and occasionally shields. They are slower than angels, but more durable and able to smite their foes. Daevas are very rare, appearing only in the Abyss, holy Ziggurat floors, holy Pan levels, and in the occasional Dungeon vault hidden behind transparent walls.

Tips & Tricks

• While individual smites are not terribly dangerous by the time you find one, a few daevas can hit you with enough smites over a few turns to quickly make things sour. Avoid being in line of sight if you aren't going to dispatch it.
• It's easy to avoid daevas while wandering the Abyss. Just turn around when you see their 5-tile halo effect hit the edge of your LOS.

History

• Prior to 0.28, daevas could see invisible.
