Tupa is in dire need of some changes, as of right now there is no logical reason to play tupa, think about it

all aoe damage is done by 2 blokes, dilo and cryo, two creatures who have vastly smaller hit boxes, dont require to be air born to be effective (making you a huge target to snipers) and their spit gives more back for their buck allowing stamina drain and acid traps.

Ptera id argue replaces tupa aswell, being a way supportive dinosaur (which i wish was more supportive by having its roar give small heal boosts but thats another suggestions), ptera also has a way better attack, due to this games janky hit registration with tupa, it is near impossible to get good hits while passively going in a group of humans for hits. ptera on the otherhand can just do 1 mouse click can do crazy amounts of dmg.

What Do I Suggest?
Multiple things, one, i really do wish tupas roar did more than what it currently does, revealing people is nice but when 2 other dinosaurs do it, it just feels lacking. As proposed in Bradz's suggestion awhile ago, which i heavily advocate, I would propose both flying, specifically tupa for the sake of this suggestions, to give a buff to itself and other dinosaurs near it, perhaps a small speed boost.

Another simple suggestions is adding a segments or lines on tupas stam that allows you to see how much stam you need to divebomb, much like dilos and cryos.

Another controversial fix, could be adding armor to tupas wings, either its arms or wing membrane, this can either be really good or way too good, so i understand if this doesnt boad well, but imo tupas most sought after points of interests are its wings. When it lands or divebombs, people will always go for its wings, simply because they take up for much of the animals body.

Bug Fix
Currently in the game there is a bug that really hinders tupa gameplay, and no its not the abhorrent tupa hit reg. When tupa calls you regain stamina when humans are revealed, but when you divebomb then call right after, you get no stam back at all. this is EXTREMELY hurtful to tupas gameplay of hit and run, because.. well.. you arent able to run.

As of right now tupa is arguably the worst dinosaur playable, some even calling it a "joke playable" which in a game like this should never be said about any playable, every dinosaur should be well respected on the battlefield, not a laughingstock, and CERTAINLY not a playable THAT MAKES ME WANT TO EAT A BABY OH MY GOD I CANT STAND PLAYING IT, and neither can YOU! so let me know YOUR suggestions and show how much YOU want tupa to be great again!

buff the speed of taking off so dive bombs can be better against BIG groups of humans but idk, It needs a buff but idk in what area

All. The fact that you can't hit multiple targets at once any more is what killed tupa imo. Plus the hit detection is really not that great

Reduce stam use from sprint flying.
Health gain from dive bomb kills (maybe just direct hits).

Let tupa ram multiple enemies again and it'll be fine

#

Dive bomb is still a "bully the solo guy" ability

I think adding the little marker showing how much is needed for a divebomb would actually be really helpful

that might be part of the reactive HUD if we ever get it working, the button indicators for attacks on the HUD become greyed out when they are not usable

It does not really affect Tupa gameplay, hitting multiple targets, supportive roar buff, stamina buff, or more armor would vastly be more effective, any of them even if it’s just 1

#

Like if you want tupa to actually be viable to you need to either revert something or make some important changes

#

I might make another suggestions about it so it gets more attention, but please for the love of troodon Jesus, ptera and tupa need to give buffs when they roar, ptera heals and reveals people and tupa gives speed boost and dosent reveal people

making ptera more of a support is a cool idea, and tupa being a more selfish aggressive creature would be a cool way to differentiate
