Chromalisk Traits by Tier
All Tier
They resemble chameleons and - depending on the type - attack with either their tongue or by spitting out globs of their saliva, which inflicts a status effect as well as piercing damage, towards enemies and on the floor, where it can still deal damage and statuses for some time.
All Chromalisks have the ability to camouflage, becoming nearly invisible except for a partially opaque grey outline.
Chromalisks are among the least threatening type of monster found in The Clockworks.
Chromalisks aside from their inherent status are less resistant to Freeze and more resistant to Fire and Poison.
Virulisks love Flan, according to the description of the Virulisk Suit.
Nonna's Retrode seems to have an Electrolisk on his head.
