are Rotghroths a really good creation?
and where did they come from?
do they rot when you create then,like the unstable thahd?

and uh...anyone think its possible that there might be a rebellious rotghroth army like the drakons?

I haven't had the pleasure of using a Rotgrhroth yet, but, from what I've heard, they make good meat shields and deal good damage.

Rotghroth's wont be leading a rebellion any time soon. They aren't very smart and they can't shape. The biggest thing they might do is start a small Rotghroth community like the Battle Alphas in Freeplace (G1).

Edit:
Unless, of course, I'm completely wrong and you've accidentally stumbled onto Jeff's plot for G5.

They're also more stupid than Battle Alphas.

Rotghroths came from Drypeak Vale. They were probably, like the drakon and gazer, invented by Barzahl as an upgraded version of the battle alpha. They are now fairly common and even legal as far as the Shapers are concerned.

Their skins slowly rots off probably due to it being covered in acid. It grows back fast enough though, so it's not like it kills them. The default rotgroth does not decay, but in Geneforge 4 the upgraded version, the corrupting rotghroth, is indeed a temporary creation.

They are very stupid (incapable of communication) and the biggest threat they pose on their own is when they claim a pile of garbage as their own and defend it, sometimes in groups.

And, according to G4's loading screens, they come from the same basic stock as the Serviles and Battle Alphas.

I think the loading screen for GF4 mentions that rotgroths can't reproduce naturally.

Never found them that useful for the essence cost.

And I wouldn't want to try to picture that happening, either.

Hmmm. . . Yes, a weak curse should be incorparated for attacking a Rotghroth with melee.

i think that's a good idea,either that or they get hit hard with a very hard poisoin of some sort,or they start decaying along with the Rotghroth. ;)

It is a very bad idea to go around typing in ALL CAPS round these parts.

Please be aware of this in the future. :D Thank you.

If I could make just one wish, I would want a tasty vlish.

Geneforge IV. Still no tasty vlish.

All caps usually mean a raised voice or shouting when it comes to internet forums.

And Delicious Vlish is back!

oh,i'm sorry everyone,it was a mistake,nothing happened here,just ignore the caps,please.
thanks you.
you but anyway,when you are a rebel,i know it takes you longer to get the abilities the shapers have,like buying skills,how long apart would it take,i know shapers would give you the tier 2 creations if you kill the people carryign the caravan,but how long before you can buy anything from the rebels?

Do not underestimate them, especially thinking they will be forever dumb. Some people in the past made the same mistake: saying that Serviles were stupid and look at the state things are now...

Well,if i knew what it meant,i wouldn't have typed it,okay? okay.

That is what i thought about,even Though the Rotghroths can't talk and whatever,they might become intelligent,what if one of them uses the geneforge and survives?
he can create an army of Rotghroths,make himself stronger,talk,all of that.

Maybe he could also use it to change the chemical composition of his body to give it a fresh pine scent.

Someone would need to make a rotghroth geneforge in order for that to happen. Who would do that? The Unbound would probably still be stronger, so there would be little point. An intelligent rotghroth might be scary. Reminds me of the intelligent deathclaw from Fallout 2.

That works.
but then it would need to have a different creation name,and it probaboly would not have the acid touch attack...
Might as well be a human that smells real nice.

No, it was my fault, not yours.

Anyway, most creations don't (naturally) develop human-level intelligence (or anywhere near it), otherwise the fyoras and vlish and turrets, etc. would have already done so.

Dikiyoba has absolutely no proof but believes that rotghroths have an even less chance than some of those other creations due to a shorter life span. Their skin may regrow, but aging slows that process down and the moment it becomes too slow, they're done for.
