Amphibious vs Swimming
Just went source diving, here's some details on the difference between amphibious and swimming monsters just so that I can get them noted down without worrying about how to write it into either article:
- When underwater, you can only mount swimming monsters for riding, not amphibious ones[1]
- Tridents add +4 to-hit when attacking specifically swimming monsters if both parties are in pools of water, not amphibious monsters[2]
- Non-swimmers, including amphibious monsters, cannot attack you if you're underwater[3]
- Riding a non-swimmer, including amphibious monsters, at less than basic riding skill won't let you dip objects into pools of water[4]
All of these references check is_swimmer(), which does indeed specifically return whether the monster has M1_SWIM.[5] Metanite64 (talk) 15:02, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
