I’ve loved playing Orneep in Creatures of Sonaria. I spent so much time grinding for the right traits and mutations, and it became my main without question. It wasn’t just another creature to me, it was the one I enjoyed the most and felt the most comfortable playing.

But after the recent changes, it just doesn’t feel the same anymore.

Orneep is a Tier 2, so it’s already pretty fragile. Taking away its burrow ability completely changed how it survives. Before, you could actually play smart, hide, escape, and reposition. Now, if something stronger targets you, there’s basically nothing you can do. You can’t fight back, and you can’t get away. You just die.

And it didn’t stop there. Losing divination heal and soft-landing made things even worse. Those little things actually mattered, they gave you just enough survivability to recover or escape if you played well. Now it feels like all of that has been stripped away, and you’re left with a creature that can’t really defend itself in any meaningful way.

What’s even more confusing is the raider role. Orneep was never meant to be some aggressive attacker. It was always more about being quick, careful, and strategic. Now it feels like it’s being pushed into a role it just doesn’t fit, without the tools to survive in that role either.

At this point, playing Orneep feels frustrating instead of fun. You’re forced to rely on things like double jump plushies or stamina items just to have a small chance of escaping, which honestly doesn’t feel right for what the creature used to be.

I really think bringing back burrow, even just once per game, would make a huge difference. And honestly, reconsidering the removal of divination heal and soft-landing would help bring back some of what made Orneep enjoyable in the first place.

I just want Orneep to feel like Orneep again.
