On entry into the zone, if you have the assault ready, a little head-squid will attach itself to your head. It will whisper malevolent thoughts at you and encourage you to kill the other critters in the area. (I think it may disconnect if you kill the free-roaming amorphic cognitors, but I haven't tested it. In either case, you can get it back by leaving and re-entering, at least from the south.) To get it to evolve, consume the lumps of fungus on the ground. These will be giant highlighted green brain pile/lumps; they won't be clickable/interactible if you don't have one of the tentacled brain slugs on your head, though.

Once you've consumed enough fungus, the critter will evolve into a honkin' big fungal monster. It has a ton of hitpoints and four abilities.

Once you clear the assault, the critter leaves you, apparently having gotten everything you have to offer.

I'll try to update with details once I get back to the area and try again.

You turn into a Shadow Hulk with the following 4 abilities:

Strike - A single target attack
Bullrush - a charging attack
Smash - a melee range AOE attack
Leap - a leaping attack with AOE knock back upon landing.

There are level 100 elite mobs of the same name in this area (or at least in the underground cave I was in) with the same name and appearance (Shadow Hulk)

Those mobs are great for grinding Arakkoa Outcasts rep. They patrol in packs of 5, respawns quickly, and you can very easily aoe them.

These guys would make cute battle pets. Could add a psychic type of attack.

Comment by Aibolit666

These guys are so cute and make such a mournful dying sound. After grinding halfway to exalted I felt like a terrible monster and the whole game seemed to be just a slaughter simulator for maniacs.
