	*If Tsuchinoko is being used as the finishing blow in a Raid, her third '''Habit'''- '''Drunken Ultimate'''- is generally ill-advised for use if a player intends to maximize their score, due to how the Habit adjusts damage calculations.

However, the ''overall'' damage done, which is what Raid scores depend on, is actually ''reduced'' by this effect, since rather than delivering several weaker strikes followed by a massive strike- which deals more than enough damage to kill the Boss, resulting in a higher score from the overkill damage- an attack performed with Drunken Ultimate performs a supercharged strike ''first,'' meaning the Boss may be defeated by that attack alone, or will be destroyed after one weak follow-up hit; the player misses out on the extra damage racked up by landing all of the weaker attacks, as well as the overkill damage dealt when the biggest hit is the final hit.		*If Tsuchinoko is being used as the finishing blow in a Raid, her third '''Habit'''- '''Drunken Ultimate'''- is generally ill-advised for use if a player intends to maximize their score, due to how the Habit adjusts damage calculations.

The reclusive Tsuchinoko rarely ventures beyond the shadows of [[Desert Castle]]. Those who encounter her are typically met with a hiss and a piercing glare before the mysterious Friend slips into the darkness. This can make her seem scary, but her disposition flips when given a gift of wine or treasure, or shown a historical artifact. She's happy as a clam when she has a good drink, and her oft-narrowed eyes light up when shown a shiny coin or a piece of Kingdom's past. However, when the booze runs dry or the moment of discovery has since passed, she returns to her typical irritability before long.

	Truthfully, Tsuchinoko~~'s signature glare hides~~ an anxious Friend who ~~desires~~ to ~~grow closer with her peers~~, but finds ~~it difficult to socialize~~.

Truthfully, Tsuchinoko is an anxious Friend who wishes to socialize, but finds the task daunting. She prefers engaging others on her own terms and resents being dragged into social situations, especially the noisy kind. She can be standoffish when caught out or cornered, but will often stick around even if she claims she would rather be anywhere else. If this cryptid Friend truly wants to leave, she will put her knack for quietly vanishing to good use. She also has a deep dedication to Desert Castle, risking her life to aid in its defense from a [[Cellien]] attack.
