Skill in living and fighting as a bat.
The Giant Bat is a [[Beast Forms|Beast Form]] with the unique ability to fly while effectively fighting enemies, limited only by the flight's power usage.
You can cure Giant Bat form by buying an Un-Bat Juice from [[Harry the Wolf]]for 4500 councils. You can cure Fevered Trismus by using Treat Disease 1, a level 15 [[First Aid]] ability, which requires a basic first aid kit or better to use.=== Training ===* Levels 51-60 along with 61-70 can be unlocked by talking to [[Yavazek]].* [[Noita the Green]] unlocks 71-80.* The level caps for 71-80 and 81-90 may be unlocked by gaining favor with a mysterious entity deep beneath [[Povus]].=== In-Game Description ===
Skill in living and fighting as a bat.
=== How to Obtain ===
Another bat player (who must be at least level 8) can repeatedly use Virulent Bite on you for a chance to give the Fevered Trismus disease which will change you into a bat after two hoursof logged-in real time. During the Halloween event, one may also be bitten by an enemy bat's rage attack for Fevered Trismus. Finally, enemy bats on the lower levels of the [[Labyrinth]] or [[Gazluk Keep]] dungeons can inflict Fevered Trismus on players. ==== 2023 Special Event ====Until July 20, 2023, the [[Happy-Go-Lucky Bat]] (normally available only during Halloween) is temporarily located right outside of the north gate of [[Serbule]], by the bridge. He will transform players into a Giant Bat (and back) for free, along with offering training for Giant Bat skills. This can be used by any character, including newly made ones that just freshly arrived from [[Anagoge Island]] === Synergy Levels: ===Bonus [[Synergy Levels]] for [[Giant Bat]] can be obtained from the following skills and levels::; [[Animal Handling]]:: Level 46:; [[Bard]]:: Level 40:; [[Nature Appreciation]]:: Level 24:; [[Necromancy]]:: Level 27, and Level 45, and Level 55:; [[Survival Instincts]]:: Level 5 ===Complete Ability List==={{:{{msg:BASEPAGENAME}}/Abilities}} == Mechanics ===== NPC Communication ===Like with other "creepy" [[Beast Forms|Beast Forms]] such as the [[Lycanthropy|Wolf]] and [[Spider|Spider]], even fewer NPCs will talk to you than to most animals. Additionally, some animals that normally talk to others animals will not talk to the Giant Bat (for example, [[Red]]). Before changing into a bat, it is recommended that you be an experienced player. (Unless you're up for a challenge!) '''Note''': If you were a [[Druid]] before becoming a Giant Bat and sufficiently high level (25 or higher) to transform into a deer (or bird), you can use that to interact with the NPCs who will talk to animals, but not bats. === Flight ===Immediately after transforming, a bat is able to fly. Flight is faster than sprinting which makes travel easier, however flying drains power. Default flight controls: R, Page Up, and Number Pad 9 to fly; F, Page Down, and Number Pad 3 to land. === Echolocation ===Bats get Echolocation, which sometimes makes seeing at night much easier. They also get Combat Echolocation which comes with a 7% evasion bonus at the cost of 1 movement speed. {| {{STDT|sortable}}style='width:100%;'!Ability Icon !! Level !! Name!!Description!!
