I think the all or nothing aspect of devour is a possible issue. Maybe DNA rewards could be incremental? I.E. each limb eaten while devouring provides 1 DNA, and the whole body (+ head) provides 6? This way, if your devour is interrupted, you don't walk away with nothing to show for it, can help prolong the shamble fight, and would encourage a bigger mix of combat+ devour.
I think grabbing the shambler while its devouring is nonsense and should just cause you to start being devoured as well, but not grabbed by it. This way you can just walk away from being devoured if you're paying attention. The writhing mass of flesh that can turn any part of its body into gnashing teeth to eat you suddenly decides it will just allow you to grab a part of it, yank it around, and suplex it (requiring you to basically hug it)? Seems silly to me.
