Changing the chance to remove a limb to 100 back when I made it only delimb when you have no butt was no accident on my part, but it seems I severely overestimated how much that change would affect its power.
I guess people just didn't feel like getting their asses reattached in order to be immune to future delimbings?
Anyway, as already mentioned in that thread at that time (https://github.com/goonstation/goonstation/pull/1192), it probably needs other changes as well.
I myself like the idea of it having a short delay and being avoidable by throwing yourself to the ground, similar to the admin-triggered blast waves.
This would still make it useful defensively, because people may not react quickly enough and an opponent that intentionally goes prone is still at a disadvantage for a moment.
