Corrosid

Corrosids are small, sharp-winged creatures with venom in their blood and acid fire in their throats. They fly on dragon-like wings, never take fall damage, dart around with a spinning dash and spit Acid Fireballs. Their hollow bones leave them with very little health, they can only eat bread, and water drags them down.

Drawbacks#

Drawback Effect
Fragile −12 max health: 8 health (4 hearts) before other bonuses.
Bread Only Can only eat Bread, plus Estus Flask and Huge Estus Flask.
Wet Wings Can’t swim: water doesn’t hold the Corrosid up.
Small Stature Half the height and width of a human.

Playstyle#

The Corrosid stays out of reach: it flies, dashes and spits acid from above, and its small size makes it harder to hit. With only 4 hearts, health bonuses from its class and gear matter a lot. Bread is easy to farm, which makes the diet manageable.

Pairs well with#

  • Druid: +30% Nature Spell Power raises Acid Fireball’s level.
  • Tank or Berserker: percentage health bonuses offset Fragile.
