* I applied the edits I mentioned in the above post in this chat page, which made that first "paragraph" more of a sentence. It seems to work as a single paragraph so I put them together. Thinking about it, there's nothing particularly important about the punch attack being like all those other monsters that it seemed worth nothing that it shared the punch attack with those creatures. Perhaps it might be simpler to note that it uses the same animation sequence as the above noted creatures, this saves the bother of having to spit that list of critters out each time. It seemed a touch redundant to have every mention of the same creature link to the page for it, so I edited it so the first mention of a particular monster links to its page, each additional mention is not a link though. I expanded out the abbreviations while I was editing it. That bullet in the middle of the article however seemed entirely extraneous. I would not be sure that it flinching from knockback is entirely a "weakness" the more I think about it. Considering the fact that most other things fall flat on their ass in the face of those attacks which is even more debilitating, one could consider it's flinching a partial resistance, but then I digress. I will have to work on a sightings table for this article later, if someone does not beat me to the punch or if I do not get distracted with filling out more weapons articles.

Revision as of 20:29, 12 June 2007
Breaking it into two paragraphs is one thing, but is the bulleting absolutely nessecary? Third sentence of the first paragraph is positively redundant. Ccelizic 19:58, 11 June 2007 (BST)
