Have a thought ever comes to mind that if you water a Magma Slag, it would become a Dust Zombie or if you light a Frozen Shambler it should also become a Dust Zombie? I personally wonder why curse zombies also do fire damage when attacking. Is this how Spiral Knights logic works?
If you have any wonders on an other npc, feel free to wonder. (Don't ask about jellies doing piercing damage. Jellyfishes sting like heck)
Why are they called zombies when they are technically skeletons?
Why doesn't Desna say "hell" instead of Kora? I mean, Desna is the buffer manlier woman.
Skeletons don't wear pants...
and our zambies... have pants...and eyes...
I do wonder how a healer is able to heal a zombie/undead, cause according to FF logic that should hurt them but meh meh.
You could say some slags have evolved (lol) and become immune to status or able to inflict them. Like certain chemicals the status seeped into their bones.
You could say Spiral Knights logic has yet to be even remotely understood considering this game is designed for younger kids who dont really care and the lack of it adds to the goofy charm of the game imo. If a game maker wants to write a lore book with art designs etc etc, I'd buy it though! (or add more stuff to the wikipages)
On a side note Desna has her charms *¬* Why are there not NPCs knights basking in her glory?
Wtf died to make the monstrosities?
Are they dead Owlites?
Or are they built of various bones and corpses of any other organism, like Gravelord nito?
I'd love to have a book about the rise and fall of the Kingdom of Almire, preferably in a downloadable PDF format.
And there was a suggestion like this on the suggestion forum not too long ago. Honestly, it really doesn't make sense that something made out of fire simply turns to dust when water is applied. Same for something made out of ice when fire is applied, it shouldn't become dust.
It's all fine as it is, honestly.
I've always wondered why jellies are resistant to piercing. If my jello had a nucleus, even a fork would make short work of it.
Instead of turning into different types of zombies, it would be nice if they turned into different versions of themselves, like Ice Cubes losing their spikes. In fact I would love it if all statuses interacted with each other in interesting ways.

That's because healing in FF is done via Light magic: undead are susceptible to light magic, and are strong against dark magic.
In Spiral Knights healing is done by reconstructing the damaged parts of the body through chemical reconfiguration.
I never knew that throwing water at a Magma Slag turns it into a Dust Zombie 0_0
Curse zombies deal fire because they were first created to go with the Darkfire Storm Citadel, which was a mix of curse and fire.
Also, while it may not be what you're looking for, all zombies but slags are weak to fire. They take much more fire damage than other monsters and fire usually lasts longer against them.
