 Moldiers are a significant annoyance at best throughout the midgame, and can easily become threats as well - their [[speed]] of 12 (or 10 in the case of the gray moldier) allows them to pursue the hero much more easily, and their passives make facing them in melee difficult. They also introduce major wrinkles in dealing with groups of hostile monsters: if they are already present among the group it may be necessary to take them out first, as they will start making additional moldiers out of other corpses if left to their own devices. Even when none are around, killing a large number of monsters (e.g. in [[throne room]]s and [[treasure zoo]]s) will often necessitate loot [[stash]]ing in order to prevent any moldiers that grow from using it against the hero.
-Most forms of [[ranged attack]] are effective against moldiers due to their lack of MR score, though they resist [[sleep]] in SpliceHack. [[Copper]] weapons deal +d6 damage to fungi and molds, which can grant an important edge against moldiers as well. Effective corpse disposal and taking advantage of certain terrain can reduce the possibility of moldiers growing. Despite their size and [[weight]], moldier corpses provide half the nutrition of similar corpses such as [[Human (monster)|human]] ones; they can still serve as meaningful nutrition sources for [[vegan]] or [[vegetarian]] [[conduct]] heroes, or for any [[herbivorous]] [[pet]]s.

-Moldiers are medium-sized neutral monsters that have no [[Magic resistance (monster)|MR score]] and a base [[AC]] of 8, move at 12 [[speed]], and are capable of following the hero to other levels if they are adjacent. Each color of moldier has a passive attack of the same [[damage type]] as the mold that they share a color with, and they possess a resistance to that damage type if applicable.
