Extra feet gained via {{favilink|Multiple Legs}} or {{favilink|Chimera}} are unaffected and can wear shoes normally, but as with all extra body parts the {{AV}}AV or {{DV}}DV of boots in the new slow will be averaged with the defenseless hook feet. | ||
The hooks are classified as a [[Short Blade]] class natural weapon, benefitting from any skills the player has within that skill tree. They only do {{Heart}}1 damage. | The hooks are classified as a [[Short Blade]] class natural weapon, benefitting from any skills the player has within that skill tree.

* Essentially no downside if you plan on eating [[Cloaca Surprise]] unless you also have {{favilink|Multiple Legs}}, in which case the hooks will move to your remaining feet. (As of 204.61, this effect is bugged if you have more than one extra feet slot via {{favilink|Chimera}} parts. In this case, all remaining feet slots will be filled with hooks when you transform, but having feet severed and regenerated will reset this so that only one feet slot contains hooks.) | |||
