[@Dice-Z]

Yes that's what i was thinking. They have a very high chance of inflicting panic on human players which considering they are one of the currently most played and most successful meta build, is very good because it offers protection as the panic debuff can cause human players to flee. On the flipside it might trigger their rage or berzerk passive if they have it, even if it's a latent perk.

[@ToadySP]

imo House Centipedes deserve a bit more attention. In the right environment they're absolutely apex predators in the bug world, I've seen vids of them killing spiders 3 times their size just from sheer mobility and venom. That and they can really survive well in urban biomes with lots of cockroaches: which apparently they have a great matchup against. Being competitively viable against bugs and arachnids while also having a source of easy XP with snacking on a colony of roaches sounds like some solid gameplay. Their method of reproduction is also fascinating, as they are literally born loners. Their mothers lay eggs, their fathers find the eggs and activate them, and then both parents never see the eggs again. Absolutely savage build.

[@yermom014]

Woah, that's a crazy spawn, hardcore players for sure.

[@astick5249]

funny cus other types of centipede are very caring mothers

[@z0mborg8]

The ends of house centipede legs are also hyper-segmented so they can fully whip and coil around the limbs of their prey to trap them, it's pretty incredible. But I'm biased, centipedes are my favorite animal, they'll always be S tier in my heart

[@Logan-k7b]

The also have fear factor, because they are horrifying.

[@ToadySP]

@@yermom014 Apparently that's not even the end of it from what I've read. Apparently the reason why they spawn this way is because House Centipedes are extremely territorial, and have an extreme killer instinct. The moment one sees another, they immediately think "Ah yes, a worthy opponent" and immediately engage in PVP. This is why you almost never see multiple house centipedes nearby one another. They don't believe in team strategies, they run and hide from enemies too big to defeat, and they hunt anything that is close to their size. Their combined speed and venom, while perhaps not as effective as other builds, seems to have a bizarre "slow but satisfying" victory strategy. Their venom, while weaker than other centipedes, is enough to quickly slow the movement of larger bugs and arachnids with a single bite. After that, they simply outmaneuver their enemies and go for quick jabs of venom before eventually feasting. It's a very sadistic and violent playstyle, and while their defense isn't nearly as armored, they try to use their speed to compensate, which can be very effective against builds who lack any sort of advanced offensive capabilities like roaches. And since they're usually just stalking garages at night, they can avoid most larger, threatening builds that would destroy them, like birds. House Centipedes can be ambitious, attempting matchups slightly above their weight class at times, but there's a limit to that, and they aren't stupid enough to bite off more than they can chew. I think they're one of those builds where they dominate in a very specific environment, but the moment you take them out of that environment their weaknesses start to show.

[@leaftruft1837]

At around 2:00 , I will say As someone who keeps millipedes They can move really really fast They move slow and are chill tanks, but startle them or scare them enough. They can easily move faster than you can catch. My giant american millipedes are slower but sometimes I do struggle if i startle them. They are also surprisingly smart, they learn to recognize me and even crawl towards me. If i just jump right in they do get scared, but if i let my smell surround them they aren't scared at all. My first millipede actually seeks me out and rears up. They don't have eyes really, just light sensors, and a bit of movement even in the dark. They're armor is insanely impressive and the only thing i imagine hurting them is something much much much larger or a horde of very persistent swarm bugs. They're toxin can get noxious and even hurt your skin. What he failed to mention is there are two typs of millipede: What i call flatbacks and roundbacks He focussed on roundbacks, the burrowing slow chillipede ones. The flat backs are an inbetween from centipedes and millis. Flat backs have the armor of a millipede, the body shape of a centi pede, and the poison of a dart frog. The cherry millipede is a great example of this plan. They're not nearly as toxic as the frogs, but they still produce deadly amounts of cyanide if you're cat size or smaller. I would put everything he put a tier higher, since I think its not fair to put them in the same weight class as us, and for as arthropods go, theyre still around for a reason. With the flatbacks higher than roundbacks. But likely same tier. I also feel there is exceptions to his ideas so, while all are valid, it doesnt seem like the whole story to me, the giant african millipede is a sight to behold(average over a foot long), and fix the problem with being too small for their armor to do too much. Centipedes are smarter than he gives them credit, they lack amazing senses yes, but for larger animals they do dry bites as warnings to save both creatures from death, and exhibite parental care, which is incredibly rare in arthropods. And millipedes are only in true danger when someting searches for them, since they burrow most the time, or are under things like rocks, leaves, and logs. Centipedes not nearly as much, but they aren't as nearly out in the open as he portrays. Go on a hunt for some of these guys in the woods and you'll see how hard they are to find. They're there, they're always there, just hidden. Anyways great video and some lovely bugs ya showed there.

@@galvsparks6295 there are a lot of builds that aren't in the game at all anymore because they just couldn't keep up at all. But despite being an outdated build that isn't optimized for the current meta, centipede and millipede players can be found in virtually every terrestrial server in the game. That's what I call viability. Despite being hopelessly outmatched in the current meta, that isn't enough to knock them out completely, which is kind of impressive by itself. There are a lot of D and F tier builds that are actually in danger of Total Guild Wipe, or are so weak they have to play only on low competition servers. But despite being no longer optimal, centipedes and millipedes are numerous and diverse in harsh and competitive servers. That means they're viable. It's like playing Deprived in Dark Souls.

I'd like to point out that many centipedes primary hunt and live in the rotting log/under rock sub-biomes where their reliance on touch rather than eyesight is actually a plus. Many of them are not meant to be hunting in open environments. The degree of where they live varies greatly, but it is something to consider, in the more tight spaces like rotting log/under rock areas they fair quite well I would say. Soil and stone centipedes are very much livers in these kinds of places, giant centipedes are sorta still build for the fossorial life, but maybe less so, and ofc house centipedes can fair outside of those areas well.

[@McHobotheBobo]

Fair points, in a tight enough crevice, a centipede could beat a scorpion quite often

[@astick5249]

I think he really under considered pretty much the biggest reason why they are so long and with so many legs: Its ideal for moving in tight spaces. I always find that Tierzoo seems to search for reasons why a build doesn't work, and mostly places them in scenarios where the species isn't adapted for and framing it as just how they live. Rather than looking at why they have their weaknesses to begin with. Centipedes and millipedes don't need good eyesight because they hang around in tight and dark places, they have unspecialized legs because otherwise it would get in the way, stuff like that.

[@dumbsterdives]

​@astick5249 Its a flaw kind of inherent to the concept of comparing so many different classes in the context of a tier list. Situational specialist builds will always rank lower than strong all-purpose ones on such a generalized ranking. Same deal with how he ranked donkeys below horses, when donkeys have lower base stats because their natural habitats wouldnt have enough resources to support them if they went for horse level stats.

[@toraqi8225]

@@astick5249 The concept of trying to give species an overall ranking is just flawed in this way. Every species is a product of the pressures of their environment stretching back millions of years and has found a way to perfectly function within its niche, so evolutionarily speaking they are all successful - until their environment changes at least. These videos often focus on things like combat abilities or traits that are useful in a wide variety of situations, punishing species that have foregone these traits because they simply don't need them to function within their niche. Also, animals at the top or bottom of the food chain are really no less well adapted than each other, in fact the place at the top of the food chain is often more unstable. It's all for good fun of course so no problem but scientifically speaking tier lists like this are dubious.

The fact that Centripedes are still USABLE even after so much time of builds constantly adapting to counter them, just show how Minmaxed and solid they were. Just like dragonflies, most builds as ancient as them just died but they still exist in sustainable numbers somehow. Once, devs tried to buff Centripedes and Dragonflies to make into the high way class and it was a complete catastrophe to all other builds so they had to immediately revert it back.

I've handled a live millipede at an insect demonstration for my son's elementary school class. Millipedes are very cute. At the same demonstration, the live centipede was kept in a closed, plastic container and a dead one was encased in polyurethane for the kids to see up close.

What came into my mind: 'Ok, here's the millipede. No need to be scared, they're harmless! Isn't it cute? You can pet it if you want.' Kid: 'Alright. What about the other one? Can we pet it?' 'Uh...' Camera pans across. We pass over a moat of lava, through a ring of spears pointing inwards, and up to an iron cage. Centipede snaps at the bars. Cut back to class. '...no.'

@@Joshua_Hale Most of the kids, (10-year olds, 4th graders) were frightened enough of the centipedes and Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches (which are also unbelievably cute once you look under their scary carapaces) but I was the only parent who was willing and able to handle those and show them around the classroom. A few brave kids were enticed to touch them briefly with the tip of a finger, but most immediately snatched back their hands. The presenter brought around the centipede in the plastic terrarium and the children were suitably horrified at the sight of it. They could get a close look at the dead centipede specimen encased in plastic but most were too scared to want to even get near to it. I'm used to handling animals so it was no big deal for me. I'd have been more uncomfortable with small mammals, rodents or such that might bite.

Loads of folks who live with an involuntary reaction to myriapods still self selected to watch this video. The BIGGEST hurdle with exposure therapy is the Self Selection Hurdle. Basically, in psychology if a paitent simply Does Not Want To Do A Thing, there is no overcoming that hurdle. The Have To Choose To Be Exposed if exposure therapy is to be effective; *forced* exposure causes trauma responses and an intensification of the phobia reaction. Everyone who decided to watch this despite knowing the subject would freak you out; you have accomplished the thing some folks don't even after *years* of therapy. Put short, YOU KICKED ASS!
