First and foremost, thank you for ASA! Personally I am thoroughly enjoying the game, and I would like to commend all involved in its creation. I have already lost a tremendous amount of sleep, and I look forward to all the sleepless nights to come lol. With respect to the ocean, are spawn rates and aggro ranges working as intended? I had thousands of hours in ASE, and I have been grinding hard in ASA. I have now tamed and lost several tuso due to being body blocked by death swarms of wild water dinos. I mention my ASE hours simply to reinforce that I am not wrecklessly picking fights while on a tuso. I am aware and take a calculated approach to all encounters. Mantas and dolphins seem to be the worst for body blocking as they swarm you. Megaladons as well, but not as severe as the mantas. Mantas are especially annoying as they seem to aggro anytime you engage a wild water dino even if you do not hit a manta. I have tested this by grabbing a dunky and a megaladom with the tuso and swimming within render of a manta. Although I do not hit the manta, it still aggros to the tuso. Then of course swarms come in and body block the tuso from escaping. I'm not sure if you could decrease wild spawn rates, reduce wild aggro ranges, or change the tuso hit box so things do not swarm the head and prevent escape. I would sincerely appreciate some sort of change though to increase the viability and justification of tuso taming as it currently seems to not be worth it due to the likelihood of the tuso dying. Thank you again for all of your hard work!
