Reference | SLASH'EM 0.0.7E7F2/monst.c#line222 |
Giant wasps, a, are the most powerful bee in SLASH'EM. They are also the only one of the new bees not to use the same glyph, a, as the killer bee, and thus are not easily mistaken for it.
Strategy
Giant wasps are only slightly more dangerous than black wasps, doing slightly more damage and having a somewhat higher base level. As such, the same strategy for fighting black wasps will work for giant wasps, namely, using Elbereth to make them scatter so you can attack the one-on-one, as opposed to being surrounded by eight of them.
