The Axl armor looks like it’s for archers

Golden Harvester Ant A very fast ant that’s the size of a red soldier ant, and goes in groups of 7-8 that are escorted by a couple Red Harvester Ants so they can climb grass flowers for grass seeds(their favorite food in irl too), but not get hurt. When killed they release a pheromone cloud that makes all other harvester ants go berserk. Red Harvester Ant They protect the colony, going on escorts, and staying inside the colony deep within. Dealing the damage of a northern scorpion, though they’re a little faster, and just like in irl they can inflict venom with their stings. They’ll bite, and sting while at low health. Black Harvester Ant Mostly found at the entrance of the nest, they are defense heavy, and you can’t deal stun to them normally. To stun them you have to break their armor with a bratburst or the other throwables in it’s category(this means you can only stun them once). Also, while at lower than 20% health they’ll try exploding next to you, if you kill them while they’re trying to explode, you’ll get black powder (~10-12). Striped Harvester Ant They have a crimson colored body with fading black stripes/patterns, and deal the most damage of all the previous ants. They’re unable to be stunned normally like the Black Harvester Ant, and are slightly slower than the fast Golden Harvester Ant. They also sting you while lower than 25% health just like the red harvester ant. These ants are the largest as well, found super deep within the nest. They can also have wings. Harvester Ant Queen(Boss) This Boss would throw lobs of venom, order ants to attack different players or allies, and attack viciously. They can leap onto the player to bite then dash backwards, swing their head, rally the ants to defend or attack, lob balls of "ant bread", that has a burning venom in order to splash it everywhere, and they can order more ants to come out of tunnels in the arena. And to prevent cheesing, the player would have building locked, with zones across the arena they have to go to in order to flick levers for disabling some tunnels for a short time, and the mysterious stranger from taking over the ants.

Sorry for any improper grammar, and/or confusions! Also, Please tell me anything that feels unbalanced, Thank You!

A different way you could prevent cheesing is if during the fight you would need the player to travel across the battlefield to idk, press a button, or pull a lever.

What it just averages the timers?

After crafting, and cooking everything you’ll get a mission for an Optic Disk. It allows you to buy the Artisan Table with one half for cooking and another half for crafting. You can make higher tier items and better foods with this Artisan Table, and if you upgrade it you can get an elixir station with it too. When you craft something you have a choice to do a puzzle to get a different quality item. The puzzles being a timed lock puzzle with a slider that goes back and forth, requiring you to press on the right material images in order. A puzzle where you have to move a ladybug to push snail shells in the right place; but also a slider with trash, bad, moderate, good, and perfect modifiers where the perfect part is changing shapes and randomly moving side to side as you try to click on it, with the bad modifiers become big as the good ones shrink, or the opposite. Sorry for any improper grammar, or confusions!

Everybody

GLASS MANTIS This boss is a very colorful Mantis and it has wings, those are the main differences. It will fly around then land on the ground acting as a hybrid, and even freeze you with its attacks. It’s also bigger and when you "k1ll it", the head will pop off and it’ll go into a berserk mode, by the way, mantises can survive a long time without a head because of how they breath(like a c0ckroach). When you k1ll the boss, it’ll drop Glass Chunks for making glass and weapons. They’ll also drop Glass Wings used for a hang glider, or Glass Arrows (1 Glass Chunk, and 3 Glass Wings for 20 Glass arrows). Glass arrows deal 38 smash/stab damage. The Glass Mantis will also drop a Glass Mantis Head for a Glass Mantis Statue, or for a Kaleidoscope trinket that makes you stun ORC enemies, and deal 50 fresh damage with normal attacks, 500 with charged attacks. The boss will spawn underground in a little "cavern" with geodes. The geodes glow and when you break them they’ll drop crystal shards for things like flash bangs. Also glass versions of other bugs live here.

Boss/Unique Weapon The aquarium would have a Mantis Shrimp boss, they can whack you with their "fists" to create a cavitation bubble of hot air that sizzles you then collapses into a shockwave. They can burrow to launch itself at the player, or create a blinding colorful flash that blinds the player causing reduced speed and vulnerability to attacks. Near the Mantis Shrimp is a piece of coral that when broken will let you pick up the Hydraulic Spear. A unique two-handed spear, that can’t block but instead will charge up an attack that spontaneously stabs when you attack, it can’t charge normal attacks though. The spear is very slow, and deals 38 damage(less than the mantis shrimp). It has a 0.1% chance for critical hits and the damage multiplier would be 1700%. And it has a trait called Pressurization, where the more you’re hit the greater your critical hit chance is but once you land one then it resets. Other Creatures Cone Snail: they shoot a harpoon like tooth that inflict venom and create a poisonous cloud in the water, though they can also negate damage sometimes. Pufferfish: puffs up when attacked and will inflict venom on anything that attacks it, though they drop Pufferfish Spines that can be used to make weapons inflict venom by making Venom Extract. Or make the Venomous Arrows cheaper for 85 total. Stonefish: a fish that dwells at the bottom waiting for something to get close then it sucks in and snaps, they’re capable of swallowing you then spitting you out dealing massive damage. They drop stone leather used for making many things like stone skin potions. Resources Majano Anemones: they take over entire areas and when chopped can give random treasures like pearls used for armor or weapons, usually magic related. Seaweed: when attacked will drop seaweed for foods like Sushi or Fish Kabobs. And can be turned into chips that allows for absorbing more water just like the clover set. Coral: when attacked will drop Coral Chunks and can be turned into armor. Pumice: you can get Pumice Shards from these boulders by smashing them, and they can be used to upgrade weapons and armor after upgrading fully with the brittle materials. Sorry for any improper grammar, or confusions!

Love it!

The Giant Nebula Goliath Tarantula is a very powerful mini-boss found near a pond, and has adaptations like some other creatures. When fighting the tarantula, it’ll bite you with minty venomous fangs, shoot electric webs, and flip over creating burning hairs that float around; though when you "kill" it, it’s head will fall off then it goes into a berserk mode like the ****roach and creates a poisonous goo that sticks to surfaces, and slows you down. The spider is weak to smash attacks on its rump, slash attacks on its legs, stab attacks on its abdomen and eyes; and immune to fresh/sizzle while berserk. Once you fully kill the spider you’ll get Nebula Fuzz, a Goliath Head(40% chance), and Nebula Fangs. The parts you get can be used to create fresh and sizzle protecting bandages, though there’s also an armor set. The Goliath Great Helm that gives you Master Reflexes(you can block with one handed weapons faster and the parry duration is longer) with Quickcharge. The Goliath Pauldrons that give you warriors armor, ranger’s armor, and quick charge. Then the Goliath Trousers that give you Quickcharge, and Foot Soldier(allows for duel wielding a two handed weapon with a one handed weapon, though you deal a lot less stun, bows don’t count, and the two handed weapon is considered one handed). There’d also be a Goliath Glaive made with a Goliath head, Mantis Claws, Nebula Claws, Nebula Fuzz, Garden Snail Slime, O.R.C Receiver, and a Weed Stem; this is a two-handed stabbing weapon that deals 4 1/2 of those damage bars normally, and when charged will shoot a web of lightning using "Static Charge".
