The **Iris** is a petal in florr.io that poisons anything that it touches, dealing damage over time.

This page is severely outdated, so take it with a grain of salt.

## Appearance

Petal: A small (the same size as a Light petal), purple petal with a dark purple outline.

Flowers with the petal's effect: Poisoned flowers turn purple and frown regardless of whether or not they're defending.

## Function

Poisons any enemy that touches it. The enemy will take the amount of damage shown by the petal's poison stat.

Poison does not stack. Applying more poison before prior poison has ended will reset the poison value to either the current one or the one of the petal that hit it, whichever is higher. It will not add poison onto the pre-existing value.

## Drops

### Obtaining

* The Iris drops in both Garden and Desert but not in PvP.
* In Jungle, Evil Centipedes drop irises at a high rate. These can be farmed quickly to gain a many irises all at once.
* In Desert, Scorpions drop it at a low but fairly consistent rate. this isn't the best farming option, but it's still suggested anyway.

### Purchasing

On certain days, the petal can be purchased in the Shop.

*Note: the price depends on how much money is spent. This table shows the prices assuming the lowest and highest amounts of money that can be spent. Also, the stars awarded per ad change depending on the player's highest rarity petal. The table shows the lowest per ad (1) and the highest per ad (3). For more information, go to this page: Stars*

## Strategy

Irises have the {third/fourth} highest total damage of any one petal, even higher than that of a single petal out of the Stinger, only being slightly outclassed by Tomato. However, the poison does not deal damage immediately, so therefore other petals have higher burst damage. Furthermore, the iris has low health and a high respawn timer, and even worse, the poison does not stack so the dps is further hindered. Iris is generally good against targets with high body damage, and dps is maximized against multiple enemies, if it manages to hit between those without repeating on one mob before the poison wears off.

### Garden

* Landing an iris on a Common or Unusual Ant Hole will deal substantial damage, but keep in mind that the hole will continuously pour ants out for awhile. It's better than using a stinger which will release them all at once though. Iris can also be useful for higher rarity mobs.
	+ The iris is bad against the ants, so have high DPS petals too.

### Desert

* In desert, irises are most effective against Sandstorms due to their high HP. It's best to make a quick hit on a sandstorm and quickly retreat afterwards.

### Ocean

* The Crab and Shell have the most HP, thus the iris is most effective against them.

### PvP

#### Using

* Landing an iris on a player dooms them into losing most or all of their HP.
	+ Combining an iris with a Dandelion is one of the deadliest combos in the game. The iris will deal a substantial amount of damage while the dandelion will prevent the opponent from healing while taking damage.
* A mythic iris is a guaranteed kill unless the opponent has spammed cacti or healing petals, but if they did that, they'll lack offense and be an easy target.
* A Faster or Yin Yang makes the petal harder to destroy and more likely to land a hit.
* Iris users should be careful of Salt users since attacking one will cause the attacker to take some damage too.
* Iris users must be careful about not letting their iris die in combat without hitting an opponent.

#### Against

* An iris can easily be destroyed by most other petals.
* However, should one get hit by a Legendary+ Iris, they should immediately retreat and equip all the healing petals they have.
