Kill Points

Kill Points can be utilized by most Mobs, including Infected, Evolved, Hyper Evolved, Experiments, Bairns, Scampers, Gastgebers, Specters, Reapers, Vanguards, and Calamities. For Specters, Reapers, and Vanguards, Kill Points are referred to as 'Biomass' instead.

• Bairns, Collector Protector Variants, and Specters can receive Kill Points by consuming Food in Containers.

• Reapers can receive a Kill Point per 25 hunger points obtained by breaking various blocks.

• Reapers will, if having more than 10 Kill Points, scan in a 32x32 block area every 10 seconds for Infected and Bairns that lack enough Evolution Points to Evolve. If finding any, a Reaper will grant any necessary Evolution Points required for Infected to Evolve (these are granted to Bairns as well). Additionally, for however many Evolution Points are given, that many Kill Points will be granted as well.

Effect Granting

Upon a random chosen tick, if the check for a certain Effect is made successfully, there is a ~5% chance the Mob will receive that Effect. The Effect can only be granted if the Mob doesn't already have it. Granting a buff will consume a Kill Point, and multiple buffs can be given at once if all the criteria are met. Spore Mobs can get the following Effects under the following circumstances:

• If the Mob is below 100% health they will receive Regeneration I for 10 seconds.

  • For Specters, Reapers, and Vanguards, it'll be 20 seconds of Regeneration I.

  • For Specters and Reapers below 50% health, it'll be Regeneration II for 20 seconds.

  • For Calamities, it'll be 30 seconds of Regeneration I.

  • For Calamities below 50% health, it'll be Regeneration II for 30 seconds.

  • For Calamities with the Rejuvenation Attribute, the amplifier of Regeneration will be increased by 1 for every additional level of the Attribute the Calamity has, capping out at level 64.

• If the last damage the Mob took was from drowning they will receive Water Breathing I for 5 seconds.

• If the Mob has more than two Kill Points and has a target, there is a 2.5% chance the following two checks will be performed:

  • If the target is farther than ~14.14 blocks, they will receive Speed II for 10 seconds.

  • If the target is within ~7.75 blocks, they will receive Strength I for 5 seconds.

Special Usage

• Depending on the Mob's Kill Points when being fed to a Womb will depend on the amount of additional biomass gained.

• Mobs will Kill Points will, instead of being despawned by Proto Hivemind for biomass, have their Kill Points taken and converted into biomass points; 1 Kill Point equals 1 biomass point.

• A Hohlfresser with Kill Points will have his vomit projectiles appear to have bone pieces in the texture.

• Reapers will, if having more than 10 Kill Points, scan in a 32x32 block area every 10 seconds for Infected and Bairns that lack enough Evolution Points to Evolve. If finding any, a Reaper will grant any necessary Evolution Points required for Infected to Evolve (these are granted to Bairns as well). Additionally, for however many Evolution Points are given, that many Kill Points will be granted as well.
