World Setting for Great Worm...

Hmm, I finally got him today.*Happy Noises*! It was strange hearing his new wave attack sound for the first time!! I had no idea what the sound was :d so glad It was him!

=============================

This was the first time since the update that I spent more time in caves which led to having to deal with 2 attacks of worms! So I'm 99% positive that the setting is bugged! The first wave of worms will 100% be a normal Depths Worm regardless of the settings but when you spend more time in caves "which was in my case today!" the second wave will be the boss!? 

they just made it super hard to get. you have to be in the caves for a very long time to get a chance to see one. it sucks but i am not sure klei wants to deal with people being upset with getting worms while they are also upset about skilltrees

This might be true in a normal setting, but I'm having him as [always]? I thought if you put the setting to [always] he will show up during the attack, no? This was the case when the first update came out! I was fighting him every time a worm wave happened, but his spawn behavior changed during the second update!

Sorry, but it makes zero sense to spend almost 2 seasons in caves just to be able to fight him!

nope, it just increases the chance not guarantees it. people have been complaining about it(albeit only mildly) for a while. right now each time a worm attack happens there is a dice roll chance of the big one also spawning, each time it doesnt happen the percentage odds increases for the next roll until. unfortunately that stlll means unless it is 100% garunteed you can still miss getting a big worm even with your chances at their highest for getting it

 

a smarter person than me can probably explain it much better

As of 308, this bug has been fixed :).
