Talk:Miniborg hiveminder

So, does this do anything in combat, or is it basically a stasis tool? I kind of doubt it, given the devs' position on stasis.--Jatopian 00:23, 25 December 2007 (CST)

• My guess is that it delevels but it needs to be spaded. --Chunky_boo 00:33, 25 December 2007 (CST)

The message when it doesn't have enough to assemble seems to indicate deleveling. --DuckAndCower 02:26, 25 December 2007 (CST)

Interestingly enough, it only lowers a Monster's Attack, not its defense...I tested using the normal method and found no change to MD, but against the gremlins, the gremlins eventually dropped from 38 to 7 hit points of damage per turn. The strangler affects Attack and Defense, so its a little weird this only does half.--Foggy 09:14, 27 December 2007 (CST)

• I wonder. Do you think the Miniborg Destroy-O-Bot might also do additional Attack reduction? --TechSmurf 12:44, 27 December 2007 (CST)
• I don't observe this reduction of attack power... either with the hiveminder or the strangler. --Starwed 22:25, 13 January 2008 (CST)

Just an update...I tried the hiveminder against the gremlins and am seeing no reduction in Monster Attack...I wonder if there was some sort of update between the posts above.--Foggy 20:08, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
