So i tried making a new creature from cave blob files but ive ran into a problem, every attack the creature does will deal extreme amounts of damage always killing instantly if hitting upper/lower body or head, even a bronze colossus! I cant figure out what is wrong with my raws.

Also an unrelated question. is there any material besides blood, vomit or sweat that can cause a creature to give itself a syndrome? Instantly if possible.

[BlackFlyme]

My guess would be the incredibly small contact area of the bite. Oddly, you didn't make it edged. Might want to give it [ATTACK_FLAG_EDGE] if you want it to actually cut with its bite. Maybe lower the attack's velocity and increase the prepare/recover speeds a bit, too.

Blunt damage doesn't care for penetration, and smaller contact areas benefit blunt attacks as it focuses the force more. So even though you would have only punched a small hole through the object, it would deal enough force to collapse the enemy in DF.

I did the following + made the attack velocity 40 and it seems to work fine now, thanks!
