SmArtKar 9b110eb64e Reworks and fixes blood drunk miner megafauna (#96286)
## About The Pull Request

Blood-drunk miner has been reworked to change it from a DPS race into a
more dynamic fight

- Buffed health from 900 to 1300 (45% increase), slightly increased
speed (3 -> 2.5), increased saw damage (6/10 -> 8/12) to compensate for
other changes below
- Slightly reduced PKA shot damage (20 -> 18)
- Saw attacks now have a slightly longer delay inbetween hits
(especially in unfolded form), ***no longer are guaranteed to hit no
matter what*** (was a bug which forced players to eat 50 damage to the
face) and slow down the miner during the combo
- Singular PKA shot has been replaced with a telegraphed barrage of 3
projectiles, during which the miner cannot move, letting players gain
some distance
- Dash is no longer a teleport but a proper charge akin to that of
lobstrocities with a very short chargeup that deals no damage or
knockdown, but allows the miner to travel further
- Miner's attacks no longer give the target stun immunity for a brief
moment (why?)
- Default PKA it drops has been replaced with an infernal version, which
comes with a cheaper (30% vs 50% of the default one) in-built rapid
repeater (that also has a less punishing miss delay)

Full fight with a single basic pen and 2 legion cores, no PKC trophies:
(fumbled a bit midway though, pre-PKA projectile damage nerf)

## Why It's Good For The Game

Current blood-drunk miner is a hard DPS check with unavoidable damage
(both due to the bug and instant dashes/PKA hits) that simply requires
you to facetank the damage using heals and kill it first before it kills
you.
This should make the fight a bit longer, more engaging and fairer than
it is right now.
