Invisibility Potion
Invisibility Potions
A concealment consumable that offers no protection at all against Larracos's defensive towers.
Story so far
Planning the last hundred meters to the Nest Tower entrance, Carl weighed his options and dismissed the obvious ones: he knew invisibility potions didn't protect against the towers, and smoke only helped nominally.
His actual solution was mechanical rather than magical — the black towers have a slow turning radius, so he would be okay as long as he zig-zagged, supplemented by a Troll Smoke Mantle and Gloom Wraith Phase.
