They are fast, powerful, immune to nearly all elemental magic, and have [[chaotic]] attacks. Malign Gateway&#039;s tentacles are loyal to their summoner when they first arrive, though they can turn hostile. They can also appear as a result of activating a [[Zot trap]], in the [[Roulette of Golubria]], and certain [[Abyss]] themed vaults.<br /> <br /> When connected to the gateway, tentacles can reach out four spaces from their origin points. If/when the gateway ends, the tentacle will be severed; it will turn [[neutral]] and flail about for a bit before dying.<br /> <br /> ==Tips &amp; Tricks==<br /> *Hostile eldritch tentacles are very deadly due to their chaotic attacks. These attacks can [[paralyse]] you, or turn you into a [[bad form]].<br /> *In spite of the fact that dripping tentacle horrors are generally seen as [[evil]], eldritch tentacle biology is so alien that they are treated as [[nonliving]], and thus suffer no extra harm from holy attacks. [[Silver]] missiles deal additional damage, and non-elemental [[Conjurations]], [[Earth Magic]], and [[Airstrike]] will also harm it effectively.<br /> *Casters and ranged specialists can stand just beyond their reach and fling stuff at them until they die. Melee fighters will have a harder time, as the tentacle will retract if attacked from beyond its reach (poking it to death with a [[Polearm]] won&#039;t work).<br /> *Because only one Malign Gateway can be open at a time, only one (summoned) eldritch tentacle can exist at a time. Casting a Malign Gateway prevents enemies from doing so, and vice versa.<br /> <br /> ==History==<br /> *In [[0.31]], the effects of [[chaos]] attacks were modified. This is generally a buff to the eldritch tentacle. See the [[Chaos#History|chaos]] article for more details.<br /> *Prior to [[0.28]], you could enter through a portal of the Malign Gateway if the tentacle was killed. This would [[blink]] you and cause some damage.</div>
