=== Venomous Discharge ===
If pestered for too long, the frog will become hostile and despite appearances prove to be very deadly. However if the hag is dead or forced out of the area, the frog will regain it's sanity and lead to a hidden stash of items {{coords|7|294}} as a reward.
Spit out a venomous substance and possibly [[Poisoned (Condition)|Poisoned]] those it hits.

* Leaves behind a Poison Cloud in a {{AOE|Radius|m=1|ft=3}}.
== Tactics ==
Despite appearances the Addled Frog has an unusually high [[Armour Class]] thanks to its Mucus ability and having [[Mirror Image (Condition)|Mirror Image]] when the fight begins. While it may have one attack, it's quite powerful and its AoE can hit multiple party members if they are grouped up. It will also use [[Jump]] quite often to create distance. Also, be wary of the first ranged attack or spell that hits it, since it will be reflected.


=== [[Mirror Image]] ===
While the '''Frog''' can prove to be quite deadly, it has relatively few [[Hit Points]], and so it is vulnerable to a well-prepared melee fighter or a Sleep spell. If its Mucus trait is gone, a burst or two of [[Magic Missile]] will also likely kill it. However, considering the '''Frog''' only gives one experience and drops nothing, it's not worth picking a fight with.
Casts the [[Mirror Image]] spell.
 
* Automatically casts this spell when combat begins, not requiring the usual {{Action}} cost.


=== Reflective Mucus ===
== Footnotes ==
[[Armour Class]] is increased by 2 and reflects the first projectile flying towards it back at the attacker, after which the mucus is removed.

* Will counter all missile fired from [[Magic Missile]] spell.
