- Pure sulfuric acid does not occur naturally due to its strong affinity to water vapor, it is hygroscopic and readily absorbs water vapor from the air.
- Concentrated sulfuric acid is a strong oxidant with powerful dehydrating properties, making it highly corrosive towards other materials, from rocks to metals.
Why it is Rare

ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 80 and blocks with 85: each hit it takes is cut by 34 %.
