Toxic sludge and acid

[mcflux101]

Hi

Several time si died to acid now since it seems it does a lot more damage then Toxic sludge. I also had Toxic sludge immunity and i understand the difference between acoid and the sludge since one is affecting you with poison and one as acid that kind uf burns you. But there are several enemies that leak acid on death or when get hit and after that acid hits ground it is turns into sludge. So should this be the same then?
I always think about Toxic sludge and that you can get away by dipping into it and get to a pit of water to clean off but a lot of times the acid kills me since it was not changed form one to the otehr yet. also its hard to differenciate sice it has the same color, so oyu dont know what you are immune to and what will kill you kind of instantly.. I would think there mus be an adjustment of some sort. either in colors or make it just the same.

Did you experiance this as well?

cheers

There are 3 things in this game that can kill you instantly even if you’ve gotten a god run.

Acid
Polymorphine
And a melee attack when you’re frozen.

Toxic sludge from what I’ve seen also scales up in damage depending on your max health and should be way more common than acid.

Acid releases flammable gas when it melts stuff (which 90% of the time is what it’s doing), it’s also a darker green color and it releases small green particles on the surface of the liquid, you can also mouse over onto the liquid itself to see the text say “acid” and not “toxic sludge”

I have to agree that there needs to be a bigger contrast between sludge and acid. My color vision is amazing and I still have to check which is which.

It's... not difficult at all to tell the difference between toxic sludge and acid. I fail to understand how anyone could have any confusion or "have to check" which is which.

Acid also does not turn into toxic sludge when it hits the ground. What enemies are you fighting where it does this?

He's probably thinking that acid-spitting enemies bleed acid.

First, the only way to turn sludge into acid is the spells "Toxic Sludge To Acid" and "Chaotic Transmutation", and only the chaotic for the other way around. So whatever you think you think you are seeing with it changing when it hits the ground, you aren't.

Second, acid eats through pretty much any material. If you see a pool of green liquid, it's toxic sludge.

Third, sludge is bright green and acid is dark green, along with having the tooltips saying what each is. You should have no trouble telling them apart.

Fourth, if you still can't tell them apart, spray a few drops of water into it. If it starts becoming water, it's sludge. If the water turns into flammable green gas, it's acid.

Fifth, even if after all of this you somehow can't tell them apart, avoid it. If you can't, practice. Because otherwise you really aren't going to beat Noita, especially when poison starts popping up as well.

The bi green blob the is fleating round and splits into smaller ones (Sleazebag Mother). Maybe he releases both and if just feels its doing that... I usually die instantly and dont have time to think too much about it
