Yeah I think those respawn rates are too fast for my liking personally. I'd prefer the tactic for fighting levis to be to take care of the defender bots and queens first then fighting the levi, instead of just bypassing the trouble by leading queens away.

P.S. what is a Samo Moth?

Samoflange is an extremely massive cargo widget. A Moth loaded with Samo would be really, really massive, and thus have a great deal of inertia.

/me dittos Starfisher's question: What do the x20 &c. mean?

The x20 etc were referring to the number of each type of bot that is supposed to appear along with the Leviathan.

I think that part of the reason that the bots respawn so fast is that we tend to whomp the Levi without much difficulty when it has few or no bots left to guard it. Based on what it is supposed to represent, it should be prohibitively difficult to kill.

What if only Queens could heal it? Since no other bot can spawn bots, it would make sense that no other bot would have the materials on board to repair something the size of a Levi. It would make the Queen-distracting/killing force a lot more important, that's for certain. It would also keep it at around the same challenge level for individual players, but groups would have an easier time.

Of course, smaller bots should still be able to heal the Queens, since Queens are much smaller than El Centipede.
