More Titanomyrma Aka Ants Please
I know I'm gonna maybe get a bunch of people saying no. Is there like a hive/ant hill somewhere in the game, where there is just a bunch of ants? I have been dealing with like 5 to 10 on avg groups of ants largest so far has been a group of 30, all have been in the level range of 10-60. Now before anyone goes how the hell, I was on my level 117 saber. :D
There was talk on my server about how so many people are getting killed by the ants while there has been a couple of us wanting a much bigger swarm of ants because of the nice drop rate of chitin.

I'd definitely like to see some larger swarms of them, possibly deeper into forests while leaving the coasts clear of them. I haven't had any issue dealing with them on foot, but I can understand how someone new to the game could get overwhelmed. I'm mostly just glad to see something that even a portion of the player base considers dangerous.

i love this ants, on a saber they provido SO MUCH chitin

a swarm of 20/30 would be the best farm place for chitin in the whole game

I like them but i feel they should have nesting areas where people could see, and steer clear of, especially newbies.

I actually kinda joke about it on my server when it was being talked about it a swarm of 100 ants but after trying to find more and more of them for chitin. I'd gladly take on 100 ants for chitin.

Tell people to stop throwing unwanted berries on the ground. That's how you get ants...

Actually no ants but add DRAGONFLY

Dragonfly eats ants so there will be a balance and also DRAGONFLY is tameable :P

Your post is kinda stupid. U can handle army of ants if u re high lvl but new players without mount, armor and metal weapons die too easily vs them. And chitin wasnt a problem b4 ants, we didnt need them to farm it.

Logged on this morning, not knowing anything about the ants being added. Went to harvest some flynt and stone for my fridge. Killed by a swarm of 6 ants before I knew what happened. Then 2 more times recovering my stuff. I'm lvl 25 and can't even harvest flynt now. I'd rather take on a Spino then these ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ things...

But these ants are so squishy. I kill them on accident half the time just trying to get narcoberries. They have the equivalent health of a potato, their only real strength is that there are an utter crapload of them right now.

I'm sorry but that was funny, even if it wasn't meant to be.
