I loved the onos for the devour move the most

No reason to be an Onos without Devour.

Loved to use it, but felt cheaped when used on it.

Overall, bring it back in a future content update. :P

I'm trying to wrap my head around why its bone structure would appear to be carved stone, but it's pretty cool.
Ultimately, I think the removal of devour might be for the best due to a tendency to create rage-quits out of thin air, besides, why bother waisting the calories to consume a whole marine when the marine and entire nutritional value simply cease to be after a second?

Actually, you could probably bring it back as a corpse eating move, similar to the skulk's, but it would take time, like an anaconda engulfing fresh prey.

without actually removing devour... you could nerf it, perhaps not being able to devour HAs or maybe allowing the marine in the onos to use his melee and (at the very least) to damage FROM THE INSIDE!!!

Oh, Noes!

It's too awesome! Reminds me of Kurchek from Tarzan, for some reason. That specific gorilla. And it's been years since I watched Tarzan last.

Description

This is the biggest of them all, The Onos has the ability to use it's horn to smash through doors and smash marine tech to bits.
In comparison to Natural Selection 1 this creature has a bone shield making it difficult to kill on a frontal attack but is weak from the back and sides.
The Onos no longer has devour ability like it did in NS1 but instead will come with some disruption abilities.
