Carbon Ghosts are an enemy found in the Skull Cavern. They only appear on Mummy levels. They emit green glowing light. They may also appear on floors 31-39 in the Mines after activating the Shrine of Challenge or during the Danger In The Deep quest.

Behavior

They fly towards the player and will teleport to a random location after they hit the player. They can pass through walls and "black space" to reach the player.

Strategy

Stand still and swing at it with a sword right before it hits the character. High-damage but slow weapons are more efficient than quick, low-damage weapons such as daggers. Ghosts are knocked back several tiles after being hit, so walking towards them may speed up the process of killing them. Otherwise, wait until they slowly float back towards the character for another strike.
