Title : Worm Changes
----------------------------------------
Hello. With a mere month until the release of Dune in theatres (and HBO
Max) I messed around Tsunamis version of Shai-Hulud. There have been some
changes that need testing and feedback.

1. SLIGHT DECREASE to base swallow calculation.

2. SUBSTANTIAL change to the damage-floor. The maximum amount of damage
did not change but it should function much more like other skills where
the damage is somewhat unpredictable but no longer giving you rounds of 5
and 6 damage at level 19. As some of you may have already guessed this
means you willget much more consistent digestive healing to counter-act
all the belly aches.

3. MODERATE reduction to the damage you take per-hit from swallowed foes.

4. SURPRISE ATTACKS when you swallow from tunneling. Careful having that
team fight over the rumbling ground next war! Will consider adding for
constrict but wanted to test this first.


Things that did not change -- some information to help you love your worm.

a. Every round there is a chance that you will spit our your foes
regardless of how good or how poorly your digestion is doing. This is not
based upon skill or the size of your foe. It’s always present. It's
designed this way intentionally and those hunting hits hurt.

b. From the moment you swallow something to the moment you spit out the
last items your stomach has what is basically an hp pool. This pool varies
and is set the second you swallow something. Once that pool hit zero you
spit everything up and take all of those nasty hunting hits. What this
means is that if you’re chain swallowing and your stomach if always full
then you will inevitably spit everything out. So give your stomach a break
for a couple of rounds. This might explain the indigestion you sometimes
get.

c. Hunting hits are, as they have always been, your worst enemy. So be
careful when swallowing things larger in level than you. Especially more
than one.

MUD MAIL me detailed feedback. Have not touched bile. We’ve only got a
month until Dune comes out.
