Paracide Bomb
"Oh' look shorty' fireflies!" -Al

Description: With their expertise in technology and explosives, Al and Qaeda were able to attach microscopic explosives into small insects, locusts which were minions of Anub’arak. The insects would then set out to find a host body, preferably the enemies’ bodies, yet if no enemies are found, the insects might turn against its masters instead. Each time the enemies would attack, the insects would detonate each time their host attacks. If the host body dies before the insects inside them dies, the insects will find a new host and carry on its mission until it expires.

Details: When this skill is used, Al and Qaeda will release a number of “Insect Bomb” units, which are neither uncontrollable nor selectable. These insects will search for the closest enemy it can find and “stay” inside it. Each time the infected unit attacks, the insect will detonante for a few times before it will expire. The explosion will damage the infected unit greatly, and cause minor splash damage to nearby enemies and allies. If the “host” will die before the insect reaches its’ maximum detonation points, the insect will search for another unit to infect and continue doing so until it reaches its’ maximum detonation.

Note: The Insects will be using the Locusts model. They are unselectable and uncontrollable.

Warning: If the insects do not find a nearby enemy host, they will infect Al and Qaeda instead.

5. Writing the names of the moderators, or other knowledgable persons, in the subject of your post to try and get your problem answered faster is lame. We will ignore and/or close down any thread that does this. You may write our names in the subject of the post if you want to ask some sort of forum question or questions about us personally. e.g. if you want clarification on an FAQ question, or one of the forum rules, or if you just want to know more about us.


About insect creation, you can use Feral Spirit as base with 4 differant base units (same name but with differant levels). You can detect when a unit is attacked (attacking unit = one of the 4 insect) to remove 40 hp from the attacker and its custom value to +1. And if custom value of the attacking unit equal to the level of the unit + 2, kill it. About the damage near the infected unit, you will simply use 4 differant Permanent Immolations.

I am using Feral Spirit as the base, using the same unit, the unit has an "Infect Skill" Which makes him use a Shadow Strike skill to give the enemy a buff. Ummm... Immolation does dps, I don't want to do dps.

Nevermind, the thing slowing this skill up was the fact that they appear at the same time and they shoot at the same time.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
