2. Their Ice Breath spell IS implemented, incorrectly.

3. The first 6 golems I killed all dropped a shard (1% drop).? There-after, it wasn't so consistent (but far from 1%).? A theory I had is that I was getting the first kill for each monster, and on first kill they drop their goodies.? But then I came across a room with shards already, and those monsters dropped more.? So I'm not sure.? Maybe first kill after cleanup drops a shard.? Anyway, I've got 13 of them.

4. Had to turn crystal to get in, which worked (twist crystal did not), but it doesn't show a secret passage.? I can just walk through the wall.? I will try again later without turning the crystal.

Edit:  Interesting
The ice golem breathes its ice breath on you for 1 damage!

Another monster doing negative damage:

dark dabbler fires a darkbolt at you for -9 damage!

This should be fixed now.  Will keep it open until it's verified.

This is likely related:

[HP=871/MA=706]:
You cast boulder on Tyrannosaur for 550 damage!
The Tyrannosaur stomps on you for 187 damage!
You are knocked off your feet, and land with a heavy thump!
[HP=881/MA=661]:

Note: My max HP right now is 871. So I'm taking 187 damage but ending up with more than my max HP? (I think it has something to do with the "knocked off your feet" spell. The specific monster is 514 (attack #2), and the "knocked off your feet" spell is spell #318.

[HP=1269/MA=1030]:
You cast boulder on Tyrannosaur for 473 damage!
The Tyrannosaur stomps on you for 124 damage!
You are knocked off your feet, and land with a heavy thump!
[HP=1150/MA=985]:

Max HP is 1269. 1269 - 124 = 1145. Yet my HP are 1150 at the end of the round (so somehow I gained 5 HP from the "land with a heavy thump").

But it's a lot better than it was before (where the 124 damage would have been ignored entirely).

[Ian]

I can confirm that both ice golems and dark dabblers are now doing positive damage.  I don't run into many Tyrannosaurs in my day.

[DeathCow]

I can change that.

[Ian]

Please don't.
