DronzTheWolf Posted September 30, 2018 Posted September 30, 2018 I realized recently that Zhan-Khazhan are more like bears than cats, and in doing so I realize that much like bears, their thick fur would probably act as a natural shield against bees. Makes sense? Yes Unapologetic buff that nobody ever needed? Yes. Not important enough to make it a meta? Yes.
kyres1 Posted September 30, 2018 Posted September 30, 2018 Even IPCs aren't immune to bees. They deal burn damage on top of toxins, keep in mind, and for Zeng-Hus it's enough to cause sparking from a sting or two. Also, a single swarm from the apiary is an instant 150 toxins damage to anybody who walks on the same tile as it. Why? Who knows.

Guest Marlon Phoenix Posted September 30, 2018 Posted September 30, 2018 Sure, bees aren't exactly a high-demand weapon.
Bygonehero Posted September 30, 2018 Posted September 30, 2018 Vaurca get instant killed by bees. You might as well make everyone immune to them.
Bauser Posted September 30, 2018 Posted September 30, 2018 It would make more sense for bees to do a mix of toxin and brute damage, right? Rather than toxin and burn
TheSleepyCatmom Posted September 30, 2018 Posted September 30, 2018 The toxin doesn't make sense. Especially when they're just regular bees. You can be stung by at least a dozen bees and not need any treatment outside of maybe picking the stingers out of you. Bees give such a minuscule amount of a toxin that it shouldn't in any way attribute to literally instantly killing people unless these swarms are hundreds strong. Which, in the realistic side of things, I doubt (unless they're killer bees, which why would you breed them on a station, they're not honeybees and there's no point.). Zhan should be immune, sure. So should Vaurca, potentially Unathi due to their thicker hide of scales. IPCs shouldn't get stung at all, they're literally steel or other metals that can withstand extreme damages (Unless you're a silly Xeng-Hu.). Or, secondary option. We could change this thread to an apiarists outfit which makes Bees unable to sting you while wearing it at the cost of a small amount of movement speed. :shrug: Just an idea.
Butterrobber202 Posted December 1, 2018 Posted December 1, 2018 this needs to be done. the tyranny of bees must be ended
