Behavior

Putrid Ghosts will intermittently slowly fly through walls towards the player and charge them, dealing damage on hit. They can cast a spell that inflicts a nauseated debuff on the player, preventing them from healing with food or drink for 2 minutes.

Strategy

Stand still and swing at it with a sword or club right before it hits you. 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 you for another strike.

Ginger and Ginger Ale cure the Nauseated debuff.
