      Me AndMeToo Specifically, the issue is that insects are usually much more spread out than humans can really domesticate with. Parasitic builds targeting these insects are massively buffed if humans try to domesticate them, as contact between both solitary insects and colonies is vastly more likely, giving an absurdly easy disease vector.
      CCD is actually simply a viral infection spread by the parasitic Varroa mite (and possibly some fungal infections), but because of the the close proximity we keep colonies to each other, it has spread horrifically fast.

    I’m surprised that ya never mentioned the Moth. Its’ gameplay is similar to the butterfly except playing more at nighttime rather then day. Moths are best suited to use the natural light brought by moon as a waypoint. Unfortunately, there is an odd bug in Moth gameplay brought by humans creating LÄMP which causes their minimap to glitch so they spend more and more time camping around LÄMP.

    • @theworthysoul

      Unfortunately LÄMP does cause the bitter end of many moth players. They are easily picked off by predators, or injure themselves bashing against the light, mistaking it for the sun. Some have adapted and changed their strategies to avoid light instead, but this means in cities might plants are pollinated less so the server as a whole does worse with less plants.

      I think you are a little mistaken, probably read some shoddy lepidopteran strategy guide that uses their outdated paraphyletic grouping, there's a surprisingly large number of them and no one is doing anything to stop their production. Anyways, butterflies are considered to be a specialized sub-group of moths, most likely a superfamily, in the same way as plume moths and bombycidae, so gameplay is expected to be more than similar (and by that I mean that they will share every basic trait moths have, and more or less could be considered a moth). Meanwhile, moth gameplay is extremely variable; as for active times, there's of course nocturnal ones like saturniids and geometer moths, but there's also numerous diurnal ones like fairy longhorns, metalmark moths, clearwing moths, some sphinx moths, and the most famous one, butterflies. The LÄMP glitch usually only works on the nocturnal moths of course, considering that they need to be awake at night for it to work, but fortunately some humans go out of their way to prevent that by using warmer colored lights which insects are far less attracted to (they'll still gravitate towards it, but can easily escape when they need to).

      You can thank Human mains for that. Roaches Thrive in Man Made Biomes and it is thanks to Humans they spread so widely. Cockroaches are some of the most adaptive and versatile builds in the game, and with the current meta favouring Generalists more and more, no wonder why they are doing so well.
      There are other builds that benefit from this: Rats, Flies, Ants, etc. Rats in particular benefit from City Biom, as they have a very safe Habitat with little to no predators, huge source of XP in the form of various trash and Human Mains Stockpiles of food. Rats are intelligent, strong and live in a complex social structure that furthermore increases the livelihood of individual rat player and chances of survival of the build.

    I actually find it kind of hilarious how easily most of my fellow human mains get bodied by wasps. There is such a simple counterplay startegie that most of them, despite having the highest intelligence stat in outside, just don't seem to be able to utilize.
    But don't worry my fellows, I won't leave you hanging! The ideal way to counterplay wasps is: ignoring them.
    Their low intelligence means that in most of the cases in which they raid picnics and other human feasts, they are not even aware of the fact that it belongs to us, so they see no reason to fight over loot that they consider free for the taking. My advice is to let them have their fill. Sacrificing a small part of your loot is a small price to pay to avoid getting stung. When the mentioned startegie fails, you can still run, but with a few notable exceptions, wasps are surprisingly chill when not provoked.
    And to those of you who were unlucky enough to disturb a wasp player base I have two things to say: I feel ya' and tough luck.

    Insects, especially the cockroach builds, have a huge intimidation bonus against humans. They are also well suited to traversing human built terrains such as sewerage. This makes them just as effective as rats in the human meta, and possibly more difficult to deal with as a city-based human player.
    However, they pose a much smaller threat to rural based, survivalist builds, or just human builds with very high resolve.

      Another potential reason is that there is a new balance patch planned similar to older significant ones like the great dying, most likely to nerf humans, but as a result will nerf many other species as well. Cockroaches specifically have high resistance perks to many elements, specifically radiation, if there's a nuclear war balance patch released ever, the cockroach mains will have an easy time adapting to newly created harsh environments. As for the Yellowjackets, they could survive in the areas that aren't affected by a potential nuclear war patch to try and spread plants with their ability to pollenate like most bees and as they'd spread, both the descendants of the yellowjackets and the plants being spread would be able to put points into the radiation resistance perk as the game slowly repopulates.
