A bladder of deadly gas buoys the bloat through the air, its thin veinous membrane ready to rupture at the slightest stress.

Bloats fairly common and dangerous enemies. They fly and they flit (move erratically), and when they attack or die they let loose a cloud of pink Caustic gas. If they are killed with fire they will not release a gas cloud, making them good candidates for incendiary darts.

Because they give a large chunk of experience to newbie players, they should be popped even if they irritate you.

Two other variations of bloats are:

• Pit Bloats
• Explosive Bloats
