Levitation

Levitation is a beneficial status effect in Remixed Dungeon that allows the affected character to float above the ground.

Effect Description

  • Type: Beneficial Status Effect (Buff)
  • Effect: Allows floating above ground level
  • Duration: 20 turns (standard duration)
  • Source: Primarily from drinking a Potion of Levitation

How to Obtain

  • From drinking a Potion of Levitation
  • From certain spells or class abilities
  • From special items or environmental effects

Mechanics

  • Allows movement over traps without triggering them
  • Enables passage over special terrain that would normally impede movement
  • Prevents certain ground-based effects from affecting the character
  • Blocks the Roots status effect (detaches any roots currently affecting the character)
  • When effect ends, the game calls Dungeon.level.press() which may trigger floor effects at the character's position

Strategy

  • Excellent for safely crossing trap-filled areas
  • Allows bypassing certain obstacles or difficult terrain
  • Useful for avoiding ground-based harmful effects
  • Good for navigating dangerous floor tiles
  • Timing the end of the effect is important to avoid landing in dangerous areas

Counters

  • Air-based attacks may still affect levitating characters
  • Some effects are not prevented by levitation
  • Effect ends automatically after 20 turns

Code Reference

  • Java Class: Levitation.java
  • Source Code Location: RemixedDungeon/src/main/java/com/watabou/pixeldungeon/actors/buffs/Levitation.java
