Reef Viper

Reef Vipers are hostile aquatic animals predominantly found on the beaches of Summerset. They appear to be related to Lesser Sea Adders. Maormer often keep them on hand to aid them in their assaults on the island. Reef Vipers are an invasive species on Wasten Coraldale.

Skills and AbilitiesEdit

Though diminutive, and kept as pets by some adventuring sorts, the Sea Adder is a deadlier serpent compared even to the giant snake, preferring to get up close to its opponents. They also carry a sticky internal fluid that aids in catching and digesting the snake's prey. The larger Reef Viper is even more deadly, and a Boss variant is more deadly still. — Prima guide description[1]:217
Bite
The Reef Viper strikes at a target within melee range. Can be avoided.
Spring
The Reef Viper coils up and launches into the air, rapidly gliding towards the target. This is a gap closer.
Constricting Strike
The Reef Viper rises, then launches an attack. You will be stunned if you don't block, as the reef viper attempts to coil around you and bite you. You'll be knocked to the ground after it releases you. If you block, the enemy will be knocked off-balance.
Bile Sac
The Reef Viper regurgitates its last meal and projects it at you. This creates sticky AoEs that snare you if you step in them. Move out of the circle to break free or wait until the pools expire. Bile Sac is an indirect attack.
