2: Three pairs of fine manipulators for Knifehead Whalegore(?)(is this really for your whales? I wanna know.)
3: Speciate the above(?)
  A: Bigger brain and send to Uch Shallows

Yeah, but I don't picture Action number 2 as fine manipulators so much as long spear-heads made like a elephant or narwhals tusk, attached to limbs designed to swing around for a lot of momentum to kill when the hammer "head" isn't applicable.
If this isn't possible, we could simplify it into a elbow joint & shoulder joint analogue and just rely on two sets of muscles to do the swing work for a bio-mechanically simpler design.
I also don't think they are not really qualify as whale-like until they're at least 2 or 2.5 meters long.

Alright, I got it.

I bet he was!

He'll be fine. Pepsi men only bit off a few tendons.

[Blood_Librarian]

He always prefers the chewiest part of it.

Maybe threatening to skip your votes will motivate you...

[Knightwing64]

Action 1: Toxin/Posion Resistance

Action 2: Bigger Brain, cover tendrils in dangerous objects scavenged from the environment, like a boxer crab.

Action 3: Adapt body to be able to migrate and survive in different zones in case of a ecosystem collapse.

SS: The mind control pheromones can pair off of and enhance each other, making the overall effect greater when living in close areas. (Pheromones better in packs, not only is it a enhancement for pheromones, but a evolutionary incentive to stay in groups.)

Hmm isn't one of the dangers of making species too smart is chance they'll attack themselves due to tribalism.

Yes. Sapience is... unstable.
