I was wondering what the answer to this question would be on the forum:
What, in your opinion, is the deadliest monster in DROD?

I think most replies will be either serpents or brains, but I can't be sure.

I may vote goblins on this one... I guess that it depends on the room/situation that I was in.

This may be a good poll.

It would be a good poll, but we need to wait for the next forum update so there are more than 5 choices.

For me, I would probably choose tar mothers. I'm just too impatient to find a safe spot for when the tar grows back.

Game on,

Probably tar mothers. I've died in rooms with tar mothers way more than any other creature.

Personally, I think snakes aren't that *deadly* per se...I find them easy, but I love putting them in my own rooms, because there's just so many cool things you can do with them. Every time I stop and think, I can imagine a new way for the player to have to kill them.

Oooh, thought of another! Bye!

For me, tar mothers are deadly but manageable. What catches me every time is goblns if I face 3 or more at a time. In every instance of that I've slashed my my through with only luck by my sword.
