Abilities
Motion Sense 60 feet — A sewer ooze can sense nearby motion through vibration and air movement, allowing it to fight as well as if it could see. However, a sewer ooze can't see, so effects that depend on vision or seeing don't work on it.
Filth Wave — The sewer ooze unleashes a wave of filth, covering all creatures within 20-foot emanation{20 feet} of itself. Each creature in the area must succeed at a DC 17 Reflex save or take 1d4 acid damage and a –10-foot penalty to its Speeds for 1 minute (on a critical failure, the creature also falls over and gains the Prone condition). A creature can Interact to clean someone off. This decreases the Speed penalty to -5 feet after 1 action, or to no penalty after 2 actions. After using Filth Wave, the ooze can't use it again for 1 minute.
WORKS WELL WITH
AnvilLANDA durable frontline forces melee to stay adjacent, letting the ooze's emanation land on packed attackers each round.
CrasherLANDA bruiser diving into the party's rear adds a second front, stretching Reflex saves and reactions thin while the ooze denies the choke point.
SniperLANDRanged damage from outside the emanation keeps pressure on while the ooze ties down anyone who closes the distance.
PUNISHES
✖ clumping✖ low Reflex✖ melee reliance
Its very slow speed means it cannot chase; pairing it with another purely stationary hazard leaves no way to punish a party that simply retreats out of the emanation.
