Overview
Bio Cannibalize plants a carnivorous flora on the targeted ground that automatically hunts nearby enemies on its own. Each cast level summons a tougher, more dangerous plant.
Mechanics
The summoned plant lasts 120 seconds and attacks enemies that come near it. The cast level determines which flora appears:
- Lv 1: Stone Shooter
- Lv 2: Parasite
- Lv 3: Penomena
A maximum of 3 plants can be active at once; summoning a fourth removes the oldest one.
Leveling
| Level | Summoned plant |
|---|---|
| 1 | Stone Shooter |
| 2 | Parasite |
| 3 | Penomena |
Lif Synergy
If a Lif that has learned Nature's Bond is alive at the moment you summon a plant, the new flora inherits part of the Lif's power. Each plant summoned while such a Lif is out gains:
- +ATK equal to the Lif's ATK. While the Lif's Mental Change is active, the plant instead gains ATK equal to the Lif's INT × Mental Change Lv ÷ 3, so a buffed-up Lif produces far deadlier plants.
- +INT equal to ⅓ of the Lif's INT.
- +DEX equal to half of the Lif's base DEX.
- Faster attacks — the plant's attack delay is shortened by the Lif's AGI × 4 (up to 0.5 sec faster).
The bonus is locked in the instant the plant is summoned and is read from the Lif's current stats, so a higher-level Lif — especially one running Mental Change — turns each flora into a much stronger hunter. This synergy applies only to the Lif line of homunculus, and only while that Lif keeps Nature's Bond learned.
Notes
Plants act independently and cannot be directly commanded. They can, however, be redirected onto a single marked enemy with Pheromone Overdrive.
