If the changeling got another cool power or something, I would be fine with it being changed.
Random changeling power suggestions for possible balancing with a different toxic spit:
- A spit move that covers the person's mouth so they can't breathe. Think of it as an item in the 'mask' slot that someone else has to remove for you. Knocks off your internals, deprives you of O2, and prevents you from calling for help!
- A goopy spit that will immobilize someone's legs but leave their arms and mouth open. Good for escaping or 'i'll deal with you after this dude' moments.
- A melee move that somehow severely disfigures the other person's face, making them lose their name. Could do some damage, too.
I would be all for nerfing the acid spit for more cool changling powers.
If anyone's seen the newish the thing from 2011, it was a pretty meh film but it had some pretty sweet designs. The ones i'm posting now is pretty much 90% from the film:
Blade arms
Pretty much another abomination form, with arms for blades, butcher knife damage. Should probably only last x amount of time, it's pretty much when you're going on a full scale assault. Costs a good bit of dna
Hand spider
There's a scene where this dude's hand fell off and became a hand spider, attaching to peoples faces. An idea would be that you would spawn two critters at the cost of losing both your arms and some dna. Your arms will eventually grow back. The critters would attack, knock down and attempt to strangle.
