News: LETOMIE Finally Arrives - (w/VIDEO)

LOL omg - it looks like he's getting really acquainted with them in the video!!

Nice worm piles, too

Thank you for sharing, Mindstar!

As for the comment about the best items being dropped in the first couple hours - BAH ! c'mon now - we know EU is more dynamic than that !

I think it is a very cool gesture that Deathifier allows those who are a part of the DNA process to be allowed a sneak peak to the creation.

Anyone can hunt them now .. so go have some fun

What I found quite interesting ... is when there are at least two Letomie moving in the same direction next to each other, they seem to eventually adjust themselves so that they're synchronized, like a land ballet. It pops up a couple of times in the video. The entire time Deathifier was herding I forgot I was filming because I was so mesmerized by the activity of these things going every which way. I couldn't stop laughing ... especially when I was in the middle of all the chaos ... what a wiggly lot they are.

I wasn't ingame until last night, when I got my first taste of them, so yeah, now I've seen the slinky in action I have to agree They were a lot of fun to hunt (thanks TDO nutters), but like all these whopper mobs it really takes a small team of roughly balanced skills and equip to leave you with any loot, despite all the sparkles going off regularly

Now I have not only Sims and Duke Nukem in one game but also Earthworm Jim. EU is getting cooler each day!

i wonder because they look like leaches if we'll find some new DNA inside them?

awesome thread as always

[MindStar9]

It would be cool Lee, if ... we could ride the Letomie the way they slither along the ground, but since they have the end-over-end slinky move as well, I have to agree with RJ about it being rather difficult. Although ... it would make one helluva rodeo! Glad you had an opportunity to play with them up close, because they certainly are a funny lot, except when you have several coming at you in acrobat mode.

However ... if anyone can get an uber or two to herd them and keep their attention, the fun is just too crazy with flip-flopping worms all over the place. It would be cool if we could tame and train them with the kind of movement they do, because I could definitely see a new profession ... Letomie Choreographer.

Thanks for the video BC ... perhaps the slinky was an inspiration for many creative people, but it was one of those things in history that just took on a life of its own, and enjoyed a pretty decent longevity.

And speaking of video ... just a reminder that I added the video from the deployment event to the original post. It's a Deathifier and Letomie personal encounter this time around, but I will most likely be producing another video from the event to include the action of the others I captured.

Thanks again for all the comments!
