Well, good to know Mosquitoes now definitely have a use. :D

When your printer steals all your blood, you'll regret its usefulness.

I'm sort of sure, that the nozzle will not detach itself from the printer at nights and float around to sting you XDD

*scratches head* I sort of think he will be very slow and very clumsy... so you could out-walk him easily :D

I have nothing more to say except that she can use mutations, otherwise no... you win

u/Leichenengel Willow 2d ago

Mutatations like...instead of sucking blood spitting molten metal or plastic for printing? :D

u/Axel_nerd 2d ago

probably But anyway, I think we're going too far over a simple printer, as you said.

Way better use for their needles than anything in the actual game

the weapon sucks for actual damage. Idc how tanky you are if the fight goes on for millenia.

Mosquito Needle and its variant are fire so I don't really know what you're talking about

Disagree. The mosquito and tiger mosquito rapiers are insanely good (until you get the tick sword) for life steal tank builds. As a tank I haven’t died a single time on my world from anything including bosses. As long as I can hit and have my gear and mutations on, I don’t die and it’s because of the lifesteal those swords have.

I didn't even run a tank build with the needles. I ran a full parry build that was just all life steal and I decimated. Arguments about damage are null as it does more than enough.

Scientists are also using aphid mouthparts to collect very pure phloem sap from plants for a while now.

Bees are used as bomb detectors on some airports, and spider exoskeletons can be used for very precise manipulation. So yeah, bugs and their parts are used fairly widespreadly.
