More variety for the Beast family is always good. Having insectile scarab swarms sounds fun, particularly with the ability to adapt depending on how much armour it has. Having more enemy buffs would be cool, as well, although obviously you'd need to be a little careful about where you placed them in general Clockworks levels. The Magne-Gels also sound interesting. Do they consistently spawn alongside each other, or would it be randomised as to which type you got? As for soul-sucking dementor thingies... eew.
Would like to see these implemented in the game at some point.

I was going to make a review for this thread yesterday but I was having a butt clenching headache that lasted all day.

Anyway, stuff again. I already added this and that to the refrigerator but I only feel in the mood to review one and since this has less responses and this sentence is getting longer by the second so I am going to stop writing it.

Scarat reminds me of one of those mythical freaks, but it was a lion with two snakes for tails. I wonder what kind of joints they smoked back then. Its armor falling off as it takes damage is alright, but is there any catch to it? Do the armor fragments stay on the floor and damage knights if they step on it until it despawns? Does Scarat regenerate health if it eats its own armor fragments? Maybe it can do something weird in T3 since there are no T3 exclusive abilities yet. Its leaping ability would be hilarious against all the people who rely on projectiles, but does leaping towards a knight create the ground shaking effect or does that only happen when it jumps in place? Seems cheap to be able to jump a distance while attacking at the same time, but jumping in place and creating those spikes around it in T3 is fine. The melee attack is alright so long as the combo is consistent and it has to go through the attack chain to get certain kinds of attacks, like only the fourth doing the tail whip and the third only being able to bite, but it is unable to whip its tail or bite otherwise. Consistent patterns make genuine difficulty. Their turning ability while using their melee attack ought to be more lenient, allowing sharper turns with the less armor they have, as well as being faster. If it starts as strong as it ever gets and degenerates to a quivering cat-beetle-bird it would only be a matter of dealing the highest damage possible to kill it instantly. The bullets on its second normal attack shoot too many boolits unless it shoots or coughs a status cloud.

Pylons seem pretty similar to my robot-tower-that-gives-engineered-constructs-buffs-thing which I should go back and add anchors to that post because of how ridiculously huge ongoing posts become in that thread. Do you have any idea about how much of each buff Pylons would give or are we going to leave that in the bowl? A bowl of salad. Pour some dressing in there. Hot stuff.

Slenderman and his tentacles. Its first attack is alright, not particularly interesting to me, but the second could use some salt and pepper. Or some hot sauce. It reminds me of an ability used by the Sacrier class in both Wakfu and Dofus where it can pull a target towards it from long distances, but the target has to be linear and the path between the target and Sacrier must not be obstructed by characters/objects which may not be moved through; the difference being when Sacrier does it the ability effects stop when it pulls the target in front of it but it can do other attacks after. For Slenderman his pulling range can be relatively far (~6 spaces) where he shoots a tentacle out of his face that travels ~80% standard knight speed forward, during which Slenderman is immobile and unable to stop the action to do something else, but if it hits a knight it pulls them in at ~50% standard knight speed. The only way to break the connection is for the trapped knight to attack the tongue. Any bombs placed while trapped stick to the tongue but their fuses are paused until the tongue retracts back into Slenderman where it automatically detonates. Bombs placed while tied up by the tongueticle are automatically put ~1 space closer to Slenderman than your knight actually is and you can place a second bomb between yourself and the bomb for an additional detonation. After all this I have no interest in the third ability but I want to see Slenderman try to eat a bomber. Go ahead. Make my day.

The magnetic jellies sound like another thing but only because magnets. In terms of telling differences, I think I need something different than a paragraph for this to make sense:

• Posi
  • spikes float ~0.5 spaces around the actual jelly and automatically damage knights who come too close
  • when attacked by a projectile which includes element damage, gains +20% movement speed (up to +40% at a time, lasts 15 seconds per projectile), +15% damage, but -20%/2 bars shadow defense; its body spikes will still damage knights upon contact and it can do the standard jelly-jiggle-on-you-to-death attack, this ability lasts 15 seconds per projectile (30 if two effects are active)
  • when a melee attack successfully connects to a knight (not including the floating spikes outside its body which passively damage knights) the Posi copies all status resistances on that knight for 30 seconds; may not copy resistances on a different knight until the resistances already active wear off
• Nega
  • spikes jut out of its jelly body so the points are straight outward, damages knights who touch; these spikes deal ~120% damage of the Posi body-spikes
  • moves ~70% the speed of Posi
  • has a slight gravitational pulling effect which pulls knights into the spikes on its body if they come within ~2 spaces, more difficult to resist and run away the closer the knight gets
  • when attacked by a projectile which includes element damage, heals ~20% of the damage from that attack, gains +20%/+2 bars element defense (up to +40%/+4 bars at a time, lasts 10 seconds per projectile), -10% movement speed, and its gravitational effect is disabled (returns when the anti-element-projectile effect wears off)
  • when a melee attack successfully connects to a knight the Nega cuts all their status resistances in half for 20 seconds; cooldown of 30 seconds before it can use this effect again
• Combinations
  • when a Posi and Nega use their normal melee attack directly into each other so the attacks collide it creates eight projectiles which fire identically to the original shard bomb mechanic (Bombies already do this; already in the original post)
  • a Posi or Nega can "supercharge" another, but only the same kind (Posi + Posi or Nega + Nega) to increase its passive ability; the gravitational effect on Nega increases to ~4 space radius, floating spikes on Posi pulsate between ~0.5 spaces around itself to ~2 spaces around it but is not consistently at one radius while supercharged; lasts 15 seconds or until the Posi/Nega who supercharged the other Posi/Nega with enhanced abilities is killed
  • if one Posi and one Nega have a knight sandwiched (on opposite sides of the knight) they can kill themselves to remove all status resistance on that knight for 60 seconds (not curable, you must wait for the duration to end to regain your status resistances)
  • a Posi can "attach" to the back a knight, reducing movement speed by ~20% for the knight, but is vulnerable to attacks; may only be knocked off by the knight who it is attached to with a bomb or if an ally hits the Posi off; while a Posi is attached to a knight the gravitational pull effect of Negas is increased to indefinite (meaning as long as a Nega is alive on that floor it will slowly pull you towards it; if there are multiple it will pull you to the closest Nega); while the Posi is attached to a knight it will not attack or do anything other than stick to your back
  • Lichens (the yellow ones) who have not already combined to a colony (before they can combine to either of the two stages where it becomes orange and has spikes) who are attacked by a Nega/Posi gain a reduced version of its passive ability; if a Posi attacks a Lichen the Lichen gains a weak version of the floating spikes which deals ~50% damage of what it would as part of a Posi, if a Nega attacks a Lichen it gains a weak version of the gravitational effect with a ~1.5 pulling radius but does not have the body spikes which would damage knights upon contact

Magnets are fun. Too fun. The government is going to take away our magnets for being suspiciously fun.
