Witch's Hut
Witch's Hut is a Point of Interest that is always present on the Global Map. The location is randomly selected when creating a New Game.
- Residence of the blinded and retired friendly Witch. Her name is randomized aswell.
- There is a well outside of the Hut, which functions identically to the town Wells.
Description
| “ | Peasants stay away from places rumored to be a home to a witch: very few dare risking the dweller's foul temper by trespassing the unspoken border. | „ |
Loot
Witch's Hut is always spawned with this fixed loot (you can find it inside the wardrobes.)
- Witch Staff (can be enchanted/cursed)
- Witch Hat
- Geomantic Treatise II
In addition, some random loot may spawn as well:
- Herbs
- Ingredients, usually poisonous mushrooms
WARNING! Picking up any loot in the Witch's Hut or attacking the Witch herself will apply 30 turns of Curse to the Character and disenchant all applicable enchanted item in the Character's inventory and backpack. The Witch then vanishes, while laughing.
If an item is already cursed, it too will be disenchanted and lose its curse.
Attacking the Witch does not affect the Character's reputation in any location.
Tips & Tricks
You can prevent items from being disenchanted by first dropping every non-Unique item that may be equipped on the ground and then open the containers.
The Witch once Cursed all carried items, so it was once a strategy to bring many high tier items and as some Curses served as good buffs, one could bring some Disenchantment Scrolls to the Hut, then deliberately apply the Curses and get rid of the undesired ones. This strategy was nullified in recent updates and patches.
