For the current version of this enemy, see Greater Pit Viper.
Greater Pit Vipers are a nightmare for any melee class; even wand-users struggle with them. High damage output in large numbers, and fast chase speed from the large ones means a quick death without a good defense. The lesser ones are nothing more but a nuisance, while the larger ones serve well for levels 6 - 10.

To defeat a Greater Pit Viper it is wise to simply circle it with your character. Don’t get too close to the Greater Pit Viper because they use powerful attacks and deal high damage for a low-level character. The Greater Pit Viper is not too hard once you get the hang of it and it will be extremely easy for ranged classes, because you can stay away from its bullets.
