How to use Allflame Ember of Rats?
Click and drag this item over a Monster Pack in the Lantern of Arimor to have those packs in the area replaced with this pack.
How to get it?
In Necropolis league content, monsters can drop an Allflame Ember, which can be used on the Lantern to convert a monster into a different type. Monsters from the Allflame Ember have special effects, such as granting increased experience, turning them into harmless frogs, or being able to drop tattoos.
The Allflame Ember of Rats in Path of Exile’s Necropolis league injects a surge of furry fury into your monster encounters. Here’s how it transforms monster packs:
Effect:
When used on the Lantern of Arimor, this Ember replaces a monster pack with a pack of Rats.
Ratty Rampage:
These rats are hostile and will attack you and anything else they come across.
Unlike the Harmless Frogs from another Allflame Ember, these creatures pose a threat and can potentially overwhelm you if you’re not prepared.
Considerations in Necropolis:
The Necropolis league twist removes experience gain directly from the Ember itself. So, the strategic use of the Allflame Ember of Rats requires careful thought:
Benefits:
Can be used to lure out hidden monsters for easier targeting.
Might be beneficial for specific challenges or quests that require killing a large number of enemies.
If the base monster pack was particularly dangerous, replacing them with rats can be a strategic advantage.
Drawbacks:
Creates a new wave of enemies that need to be dealt with, potentially diverting your attention or resources.
Doesn’t guarantee that the rats will be easier to handle than the original monster pack.
Possible Uses:
Luring out hidden enemies that may be burrowed underground or hiding behind obstacles.
Completing challenges or quests that require a high enemy count.
Replacing a dangerous monster pack with a potentially less threatening pack of rats (depending on the original monster type).
Overall:
The Allflame Ember of Rats in Necropolis offers a high-risk, high-reward scenario. It can be a strategic tool for specific situations, but underestimating the ferocity of a rat swarm can lead to trouble.
Remember:
Always consider the surrounding environment and potential challenges before unleashing a pack of rats.
Use this Ember strategically to complement your combat approach, not replace it entirely.
