+The bane of hasty adventurers everywhere, acid spheres wobble slowly and corrode gear quickly.
+Immensely fragile, they break from a single hit, but not without spraying acid on their assailant.
+Elemental attacks have little effect on them.
+Arrows, bolts, and bullets make short work of this dungeon menace. Bring your bracers, just in case.
