The Potion of Toxic Gas is a harmful potion.

Its class name in save files is "com.​watabou.​pixeldungeon.​items.​potions.​PotionOfToxicGas".

Description

Potion of Toxic Gas
Uncorking or shattering this pressurized glass will cause its contents to explode into a deadly cloud of toxic green gas. You might choose to fling this potion at distant enemies instead of uncorking it by hand.


Obtaining

The Potion of Toxic Gas can be found randomly at regular depths (not at Boss depths), and in Shops, or as a random drop from Dwarf warlock or brewed through alchemy.

When drank

Drinking confirmation
Are you sure you want to drink it? In most cases you should throw such potions at your enemies.

1000 units of Toxic gas blob are released at the Hero's position, and then spreads 1 tile per turn (in each of the cardinal directions, never diagonally).
Any character present on an affected tile will receive some damage each turn, with the amount depending on the total health and the depth.

Tips

  • This potion is useful when fighting the King of Dwarves and his Undead Dwarven army.
  • Do not use it in combination with Potion of Paralytic Gas, as the two gases will compete for tile occupation:
    if the two gases reach the same tile, the less dense gas (smaller quantity) simply disappears (in case of strict equality, the Toxic gas disappears).
    However, in case of concurrent occupation of a same tile, the damage from Toxic gas is applied, before the less dense gas disappears.
