Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Help Tips & Tricks Dealing with Ettercap infestations

How the heck do I get rid of an infestation once a character has this condition? The description says fire or acid damage will rid the character of this affliction, but I've tried attacking with a torch, throwing a torch, and fire arrow spell. NOTHING will seem to end this stupidity...

So how am I supposed to get rid of the creepy crawlies?

I've always murdered them before they have gotten close, but have you tried a flaming or acid surface?

I allways just waited few rounds. O_o
