User:Wheatley1001

I have been playing Barotrauma since the 26th of June, 2020. I have been a wiki editor since 28th of April, 2022. I've built three submarines, have three in development, and have another three concepts to develop.

My discord is Wheatley1001#9363 if you have questions about my edits.

My focus is to check pages and make changes to any sentences that don't make sense. I also look to expand on niche areas of the wiki which are either stubs or out of date, or add updated information which has yet to be included.

Pages I've worked on:

Major Changes

-Terms of Service (To Be Confirmed/Awaiting Review)

-Latcher (WIP)

Minor Changes

-Harpoon Gun - Trivia (grammar fixes)

-PUCS Suit - Function (spelling fixes)

-Dirty Bomb - Minor grammar edits

-Volatile Compound N - Grammar edits, shifted order of item loading

Sandbox Area

Note: Mostly focused on the content of the page rather than style. Styling will come if content gets approved.

Aimed improvements/outcomes for the page:

1) Add content

2) Show the Terms of Service page more commonly; do not hide it in the account request page

3) Comply with legal terms and protect everyone involved

Description

The Latcher is relatively slow compared to other abyssal creatures.

The Latcher can be found naturally in the abyss. In the campaign mode, the Latcher will be less likely to spawn as the player progresses throughout the campaign, favouring .

(Very Large creature)

In-game

The Latcher will use its tongue to attack submarines. If the Latcher misses its attack, it will retreat and observe the submarine from a safe distance. It will then approach the submarine again and attempt to attack it with its tongue. Once the Latcher has attached its tongue to the submarine, it will drag the submarine into the depths of the abyss at rapid speeds. Additionally, it will bring itself closer to the submarine and start biting at the hull, causing hull damage. The Latcher will also ram its body into the submarine on occasion, causing hull damage as well.

The Latcher will focus smaller creatures outside of the submarine, preferring to consume beings whole.

If the Latcher takes sufficient damage, it will retreat away from the submarine. It will then return from a different angle, ready to attack the submarine once more.

Trivia
