Three storage lockers full of floaters.
So our hero has saved the day! All is well! What does he do next? GO home? Find fame and or fortune? OF course not. He collects floaters for shenanigans!

I'm taking requests for floater shenanigans. I will make an imgur album and post it on here. You want a floater attached to something, or twenty, and see the hilarious results? This is the place to go! Tell me your ideas, and I'll make them happen.

Unfortunately, last I checked, floaters had been horribly nerfed. It took something on the order of 38+ floaters attached to the head of a reaper in order to screw up its movement patterns.

It would be fun to find out how many it would take to send an adult ghost leviathan to "sleep with the skyrays", and then do exactly that to one of the ones that spawns in the dead zone. Just trap them on the surface and then move back over the edge into safe territory and watch them wriggle furiously trying to go far enough away to despawn.

Alternatively... Attach a floater to a flare and watch the crabsquids go ballistic. Perform a Fulton recovery on a sea treader and observe as it tries to comprehend the situation.

What can you attach floaters to? What will float?

Reefback island is successful. Next stop, Sea Trader's path.

Also, I believe they attach to literally everything.

I would upvote a "Feed Floaters" Mechanic where we can feed them fishies to grow them in to ancient floaters 6^_^6

Might also want to attach a floater to the various cave crawlers roaming around underwater. With any luck they should be heavy enough to stay on the bottom with a floater attached to them, but they'll get more than they bargained for next time they use their jumping attack.

I did it to a Sea Dragon once. It completely immobilized him and he got stuck on the ceiling, unable to move.

I get the feeling that this was done a long time before the 1.0 release, as floaters got the float nerfed right out of them in one of the updates leading up to going gold.

I'd like you to go caving. Run up to a crash fish as it's coming out of its nest and slap a couple floaters on it. Be interesting to see if he floats away before he blows up

Unfortunately, yeah. But at the time, it was absolutely amazing.

Get the Aurora back into orbit please <3

Floating Sea Treader is done, poor fella. No idea what's happening. Next up, Crash fish.

I actually did a blood crawler on the way to STP. He jumped, and wound up stuck to the ceiling. Haha
