Don't you like the Toxic Chomper change? What do u think? op?
Not op, but unnecessary. His toxic aura gets a nice range and damage boost after the toxic upgrade, which makes him good for protecting gardens from spawnable zombies even when you don't know where they are.
Also, to compensate for his relative low damage output, I normally equip the standard goop. While the enemy is gooped, lay a spike weed on their feet, and spray them; first spray the ground, keep holding the trigger, and aim towards your opponent. This way you do 75 damage from the goop and spikeweed alone, then you just finish them with your toxicity. I normally do this only on tanks.
Maybe you don't have to do all this with fire chomper. But although he's not op, he does not follow the general rule of fire variants; low direct damage. Also, he deals one more point of fire damage than any other fire variant.
If you were to bring chompers in pair, I think fire chomper would have to be nerfed. Hahaha you might be saying "what's wrong with you, chomper character is already bad and you wanna make one of his best variants as crappy as the others!?".
Well, I think the real problem with chomper comes from swallowing. You just can't go melee on enemies because you might end up eating them, leaving you on a vulnerable state for too long. Even with spraying chompers, this sometimes happens. And even if you intend to eat them, the process is just so slow, that most of the is a suicidal move. Pop cap should prioritize this issue.
Finally, I forgot to mention chomp thing. I totally agree on the damage buff. Not so sure about the health one. 😛
