Tips[edit | edit source]
- Acrid's Vicious Wounds attack animation can be cancelled and reset by initiating a dash. This allows Acrid to attack extremely quickly with no items. In Development Thoughts #11 it was noted this behavior will likely get removed.
- Acrid's Poison can't kill on its own.
- This makes items that can finish off low health enemies very effective, such as Tri-Tip Dagger and Old Guillotine.
- Poisoning the boss or bosses via Neurotoxin and Epidemic and then running away while the poison ticks is a great tactic.
- Acrid's Epidemic gives Acrid great early-game AOE damage. When combined with items such as the
Ukulele...and his music was electric.
25% chance to fire chain lightning for 80% TOTAL damage on up to 3 (+2 per stack) targets within 20m (+2m per stack).,Will-o'-the-wispDetonate enemies on kill.
On killing an enemy, spawn a lava pillar in a 12m (+2.4m per stack) radius for 350% (+280% per stack) base damage., andGasolineKilling enemies sets nearby enemies on fire.
Killing an enemy ignites all enemies within 12m (+4m per stack). Enemies burn for 150% (+75% per stack) base damage., this lets Acrid easily clear crowds of enemies. - Acrid does not spawn from an escape pod, making Acrid unable to unlock Power Plant on its own.
- Acrid does not take any fall damage while using Caustic Leap or Frenzied Leap.
- Intentionally shooting Epidemic at the floor or walls can allow you to reliably hit flying Monsters such as Lesser Wisps.

Trivia[edit | edit source]
- The challenge necessary to unlock Acrid, "...To be left alone" is a reference to Acrid's victory screen from the first Risk of Rain, which reads "...And so it left, with a new hunger: to be left alone."
- Acrid is referred to internally as "Croco"
