River rat

Useful Info

River rats are slightly tougher than regular rat but still pretty weak. They can be found in small numbers in the Sewer, and in large swarms throughout the Lair.

Tips & Tricks

They tend to come in packs, but since they have no resistances, standard crowd control tactics will work. Although individually harmless, a swarm of them surrounding a character with low defenses may find themselves getting nibbled to death faster than they can eradicate the pests. Try not to fight them in or around water, as they can swim through it normally and suffer no penalties while attacking in it.

History
