I'm going to do the smart thing here and disengage. This isn't a hill I paticularly care to die on.

Gripping Tentacles +1
Nocturnal +1
Improved Senses +1
Eyes -1

Eyes are for losers, we're boycotting them.  This way we work well in the dark when sighted creatures are at a disadvantage, and we completely ignore camouflage and other such visual defensive traits.  Eye lasers have nothing on our remote crystal neurotoxin stingers.

Oh yeah, eyes -1 of course.
and maybe it would be a good idea to reduce our skin temperature - in case any predators can see infrared wavelengths.

This, and improve our toxins. It's always worthwhile to be more poisonous.

Uric acid +1

Larger wings and more efficient wing musculature; So we can hunt more easily over the plains (ocean even) where there are no trees to soak up sound waves.
Further develop sense of hearing; We are getting beat by the lesser sighted beasts, dammit. Where is out ability to snipe prey from the other side of the forest if they so much as breath?
Develop pack hunting further so we can take on bigger prey.

Hey, reckon -if we get smart enough- we could rope those seed-balloon things together, use our back fins as engines and make little biological zeppelins? Wouldn't it do wonders for our range. We could cross the oceans!

Because clearly it is a very safe method of travel, having a combustible ball on your back.

+1 to everything else, though.

-1

Why should the fact it is combustible mean anything? The only thing that could potentially ignite it would be lightning, extremely dry conditions (unlikely what with us being right next to an ocean) and probably something else that my sleep and caffeine deprived brain can't think of at the moment. If it is the former you are worried about, then clearly the solution is to not use it in a storm. Easy, since we would be in no way attached to it, and could build another if it is destroyed.
