The bat doesn't have to look any different, the idea is that you don't know when going up against a bat if it will be a strong or weak one. Just as when you are dealing with ants as a noob, you must worry about the super ants that can move as fast as a boat. Bats give decent products, I farm soooooo many of them. Around my area, the bat's quality is about 45, so that means I get unlimited bones for seer's bones, unlimited bat wings(a great curio at q45, and a pretty good agility food), unlimited hide(which I dry and turn into hide strap, which I use to make straw dolls), unlimited meat(for feeding alts and such, as I mostly only use alts for leveling and such), unlimited intestines(I don't use them much, but they could be used for mirkwood offerings as well). This amount of free items is a little bit rediculous and only gets more broken the higher quality bats you have near you. The solution I saw about adding other creatures to the caves might help stop you from feeling so safe in caves, but as it is you get unlimited resources for only a couple minutes of your time(so simple it is bottable, just spam sideswipe and never get damaged), and no incentive not to take all of these resources.

I suggested wyrms before. Worm dragons. A wyrm (or worm, or vurm), is a type of dragon that commonly appears in British and Norse mythology.

More cave enemies would be sweet, and a giant bat is not a bad idea.
