im guessing you've never run into midges irl. they are by far the worst creatures on earth you get into a thick swarm and its over. they get in your eyes they get in your nose you'll get them in your ears you'll breathe them in if your moth isn't closed their horrible creatures

I was turbopissed about them at first but since seeing how quickly the wounds fade I'm not too concerned anymore. I've come to accept that I'll hover between 60% and 30% of my max HHP, at least until i get REALLY settled in

Yes, would be nice if the client could scale the volume of these depending on actual distance to the wild beehive.

It does, but the base volume is probably just way too high. I've already noted this myself. I also can't help but wonder if wild beehives are too common, it feels like they're on every other screen.

every piece of content and wound you make is 'insecurity' in low-hhp land. Your beehives are literally not even manageable by end game fighters. I think you guys really have a misconception of how much early game is a 'cakewalk'

Really, don't.

so botting is perfectly fine. but lord forbid you AFK or jorb will murder you with flies that shouldnt even deal damage.


the point of midges is to counter afk bots in swamps... you literally have no idea what you talk about sometimes.
see homo sexuality trending,. do not do that.

Oh yeah.

Wild Beehives are too common considering how easy and pathetic they are. They totally aren't infinite fountains of what are essentially layer 5 slimes. Good content, I'm glad Jorb and Lorb tested them thoroughly! They're such engaging content that they were worth the dev time because I think at least 1 person at some point has done it.

And people complain that nothing is done about the bots...

many of us are in agreement with you. No need to be a complete dick about it.
