50- what

hexed timber
#

then a fg dilo

sterile shale
#

Oh well that’s not bad

hexed timber
#

you start hitting your 50km/h from 50-80% growth

#

then you dip, to below dilo

old spindle
#

I meant like 50% to what percent case fg Omni is slower

#

When dilo is 50% is it faster?

sterile shale
hexed timber
#

yes i think it is

#

i saw a sub dilo on my sub omni yesterday

#

and it was so fast XD

sterile shale
#

I haven’t even played dilo yet

hexed timber
#

i just stood there like... ehm ok, forgot they also faster till fg, gg

sterile shale
#

My last time playing Omni I had a whole pack of like eight and half died to one cera because they had zero stam and tried to run but just died

old spindle
#

Can't wait for dilo to get a jump so no Omni is safe ever 😔

hexed timber
#

i cannot pop control them, even if i try to weed out the little ones ( sub else no food value)

#

on a carno i probably could tho, but meh do i wanna go out of my way so far

old spindle
#

It's not?

hexed timber
#

it wont get a jump i think

old spindle
#

Buff troodon jump the thing ways less then I do and I can jump higher than it

hexed timber
#

i did suggest it in the past to give juvis a jump that gets less and less high off the ground as u grow bigger ( at one point u lose the ability to jump)

#

but people didnt like it, i guess all the afk growers on raptors hated it

old spindle
#

Troodon afk growing is just waiting to get stamina back and by the time you have a full bar again ur fully grown

hexed timber
#

😂 fr

old spindle
#

Like literally

#

30 minutes to full grown and it takes 30 minutes to get your stamina back

hexed timber
#

i find it odd

#

when ur hurt as hell, ur stam regen is close to 0 , but why dont we get benefits? when we have perfect diet and are in the best shape of our life

old spindle
#

Because the isle god hates us and wants us to suffer

sterile shale
#

Honestly at this point I would be playing POT if it was on steam lmao

hexed timber
#

fair, i think the vision is somewhat of a dinoshooter game in the end , mostly ai , but community is here for the dino simulator, at least i am

sterile shale
#

The isle is in such a questionable state that I believe will get better with time but, a quite long time

old spindle
#

It's supposed to be a more realistic survival take on the genre while pot is super Arcady

#

Remember if u wanna grow ur Rex u gotta collect those pine cones

sterile shale
#

The idle vs path of pinecones lmao

#

Which Dino game is better

hexed timber
#

playing the isle sometimes reminds me of dino documentaries and u just living out your life, and i am all forit, love that this exists. Compared to other dino games this one still takes the crown. Bob is too cartoony, Pot = weird , i aint collecting bs sticks , and isle is just raw realistic graphics and dino experience

old spindle
#

Bweasts owof bewmuda

sterile shale
#

Yeah but the “Dino experience” is far from perfect rn, but I believe they’ll get there one day

hexed timber
#

its a bump in the road

old spindle
#

I just like the fact the dinosaur in the isle atleast move and look like somewhat living animals

hexed timber
#

yep, i can immerse myself

sterile shale
#

True

old spindle
#

It's all abt that aesthetic

hexed timber
#

tho currently i cant cuz the "RUBBERBANDINGGGGG" but it got less after last update, so imma shut up about it till it irritates me again 😂

sterile shale
#

But the game can break immersion a little quick,

old spindle
#

Truly the best dinosaur game is saurian TI_Troll

stable blaze
#

Path is pretty okay despite being arcady, definitely has my attention, I'd love to play this game more if my laptop could actually run it without either crashing or lagging constantly. Though the rubberbanding sounds like a server issue and not just my system being poorly

old spindle
#

Remember u can always play it on ur phone

limber hull
#

yea but you'd have to play PoT

old spindle
#

True

hexed timber
limber hull
#

the game where a rex takes 10 bites to kill a megalania

stable blaze
#

Did not see that video while I was watching your solo omni plays (very inspiring btw for a legacy utah main), will have to check it out later and see if it helps next time I attempt playing!

hexed timber
#

our rex will pick that thing up and throw it

old spindle
#

Our Rex will just pick it up and swallow it

#

Monch Monch

hexed timber
old spindle
#

Legacy dilo has my heart

hexed timber
#

automaticly best friends now

limber hull
#

legacy dryo is the only legacy dino i like lol

stable blaze
#

Eyy! It's been a long, long time since I played admittedly. But hey, I would be up for giving TI another go some time

old spindle
#

15 newtons of damage 25 bleed crazy stat spread

stable blaze
#

Did try growing a troodon in the past a few times but I think it was during the AI drought

old spindle
#

Troodon best dinosaur

hexed timber
#

and legacy dilo was considered the "easiest of all" matchups for a utah

old spindle
#

I only played legacy Dino to bite Rex's feet till it had 100 bleed

hexed timber
#

like i havent died to a dilo in 3 years on legacy, so i threw a fit when i had to fight naruto in evrima

#

i mean dilo... my bad!

stable blaze
#

Does the game seem playable at the moment? I have been wanting to try and reinstall and play omni for the first time since erivma launch, but watching the game has been a bit of a yikes

hexed timber
old spindle
#

Sorta

stable blaze
#

At the moment, yeah

hexed timber
#

intresting answer

old spindle
#

Idk if they changed it but when I played legacy the thing with Rex is if you started biting it as a dilo or Utah it could legit sit down and wait the timer to safe log

hexed timber
#

alr lemme slide in yo dm's and give u a inv

stable blaze
#

On vacation away from home

#

Alr, I gotta reinstall the game lmao

hexed timber
#

and this is constantly applying dmg

#

so yes they can safelog as u start to bite them

#

and log back on in the night, heal the bleed , low server pop so all the ai is theirs

#

as a means to recover

old spindle
#

Yup

robust sandal
#

Yo is there something i can do if i got stuck between two rocks as a adult stego?

kindred flame
#

@hexed timber if dilo is slower than utah, it wont be a unter but a worse cera. Plus, it is faster but ITS AGILITY SUCKS, dont run in straight line as an omni, dodge its attacks and stop complaining about your own skill issue.

old spindle
#

Yes it would? It's close to double the weight and has a much stronger bite? And venom?

#

It doesn't need to be as slow as Cera, just a one km difference would be enough

kindred flame
old spindle
#

Alt bite exists

#

And it wouldn't be killed by tenos? It would still be faster????

kindred flame
old spindle
#

So don't use it while running, it sounds like your parents are siblings

kindred flame
old spindle
#

No one's asking for it to be slower than teno or Cera

kindred flame
old spindle
#

That's just blatantly false

kindred flame
#

if a teno ass rided it like cera, it would just bleed out and die easily

old spindle
#

If you are getting ass rided as Cera you must be terrible at the game

#

It has one of the quickest alt bites

#

No one wants it to be slower than teno or Cera, they are asking for it to be slower than Omni, an animal that's weaker in every aspect outside of turning

kindred flame
kindred flame
#

dont nerf other creatures just because u play as a terrible one

old spindle
#

No one wants it to be slower than Cera or near that speed????? They want it to be slower than Omni?????

kindred flame
#

i said if it was almost as slow as cera (45 km/h) which is still close to ceras speed, it would die from almost anything at that point

old spindle
#

Cerato is 40km/h

#

No one's asking for it to be reduced by 5 it's to be reduced by 1

kindred flame
#

and its agility+ alt bite are quick, dilo would need agility of omni then considering it would be SLOWER than it (omni)

old spindle
#

No it wouldn't as it's 350 kg heavier with a stronger bite and venom

#

It has better stats in every regard

kindred flame
#

and uta as wores tan every other dinosaur

#

nerf everything then i guess

old spindle
#

That's due to pounce issues

#

Which is completely unrelated

kindred flame
#

so basically if tey fixed it dilo wouldnt need to be slower than it

#

plus logically it has longer legs, faster but less agile

old spindle
#

It's a dinosaur that has shadow clone jitsu logic barley matters

kindred flame
old spindle
#

It's abt game balance, dilo is currently the strongest carnivore on the roster by a large margin

kindred flame
#

it can drift, as insane hitboxes and is faster than it

#

a teno can easily bleed it out

#

u just gotta learn ow to counter dilos venom

old spindle
#

Yeah if you get hit cause your bad

#

If your trading hits against a larger dinosaur then yeah

kindred flame
old spindle
#

You called me brain dead off the bat

kindred flame
#

nerfing more dinos bc one has an issue killing it

old spindle
#

That's not what's killing it, what's killing it is dilos are faster and can run them down on sight

kindred flame
old spindle
#

Yeah, but they can run away

kindred flame
#

just like from dilo

old spindle
#

And Carno has a much worse turn

kindred flame
#

use terrain as ur cover, and ur agility as your skill

#

what i dont get is how u can run in straigth line, come here and complain about dilo being faster than omni then wanting to nerf the dilo bc u dont know or u dont want to out manouver it

#

u cant just face tank a dilo

#

u need to bleed it

#

and ambush it

old spindle
#

No ones running in a straight line and I'm not talking about killing dilos, I'm talking about giving Omni the chance to get away

kindred flame
#

i would only agree on speed nerf if it had ambush mechanic

kindred flame
#

its pounce sucks, probably be fixed in the next 6 months

#

and if u want to get away as omni, put ur headphones and start listening to loud footsteps

#

dilo is literally a carno but with worse stats

old spindle
#

Basically what's happening is you have been playing dilo, a dinosaur considered by the large majority of the player base as too strong currently, and are on a power trip and don't want it to be nerfed in any regard

#

That's just not true so the we, carno and dilo are not the same at all

kindred flame
#

dont project i dont want to nerf it in any regard, i dont want jus to get dilo a utah treatment

#

which is the only thing people like you offer

#

if you wanna discuss it more, go on. Im free to talk.

old spindle
#

I'm offering a nerf of 1 km/h

#

💀

kindred flame
old spindle
#

It would let Omni run away from it

kindred flame
#

1 km isnt even much of a difference

old spindle
#

Yeah I know

kindred flame
#

its more of a skill issue coming from u

old spindle
#

It would mainly only effect that matchup

kindred flame
#

give dilo worse stamina

#

and fix omnis pounce

#

plus if u wanna solo a dilo as utah, then mf there is something wrong with u

old spindle
#

That's literally not what I'm asking for

kindred flame
old spindle
#

And nerfing its stamina would be a larger nerf than what I suggested

kindred flame
#

so buff omni

old spindle
#

So it's faster? That would work too

kindred flame
#

my man whole issue with dilo is that its faster than trash utah and its venom lasting too long, the only thing what i agree to tweak on is its venom

#

bc nerfing a dino to give more chance for the worst dino in the game is ridiculous

old spindle
#

Omni isn't even the worst Dino in the game

kindred flame
#

with its pounce it kinda is

urban flax
old spindle
#

Better than dryo ptera troodon hypsi beipi Herrera

kindred flame
urban flax
kindred flame
#

small tiers lack abilities

#

utah got punished too much, thats why its worst from mid tier. Bc who even plays lil dinos?

urban flax
#

people who can get amusement from anything other than "hurr durr I'm big"

old spindle
#

Lmao "Omni is the worst Dino in the game because to me the other ones aren't real"

urban flax
#

Directional pounce is something that has been asked by members of the community for a long time and was once a thing
Now it's just a hitboxes/latency issue

kindred flame
urban flax
#

It has consistently been the worst dino in the game since its addition

kindred flame
old spindle
#

Said it was the worst Dino in the game

urban flax
#

Dryo recently got new attacks, herrera is fine, ptera is fine (bar the bugged fish spawns) troodon is only "bad" because dilo outperforms it (but has an otherwise solid kit)

old spindle
#

Lmao throwing insults out constantly to try and make your point better is hilarious

kindred flame
old spindle
#

-you are brain dead
-your dad is your uncle
-your trash
-your blind

kindred flame
#

im throwing insults at you, then u taking vengeance and saying something about my family is better?

old spindle
#

I matched your energy

kindred flame
#

i just got that energy from u

old spindle
#

No u didn't? You started the insults first?

kindred flame
#

bro but u tink talking about someones parents is "matcing the energy"?

#

thats already dumb mindset u represent

#

like i dont need to be kind to you, but starting with "ur parents bla bla bla" is just off the line

old spindle
#

Musta hit a nerve then

kindred flame
#

no, its u who gets every insults to their heart

#

then starting with parent jokes

#

dont require kidness from me if you answer with violence on violence

old spindle
#

You haven't been kind or respectful in any way since the beginning, I opened the conversation up with a counter argument to your point and you instantly went to insults

kindred flame
old spindle
kindred flame
old spindle
#

Your argument is full of contradictions and it's already hard to follow with the spelling, I'm done with this conversation anyway

kindred flame
short arch
#

I think beipi with its webbed feet should be able to run on mud. It would provide it a unique getaway and fits the character of the animal. This ability to run on mud should be exclusive to beipi as a neat mechanic.

remote cipher
#

Does anyone know how to open 2 the isle evrima at the same time?

wooden agate
#

why would you do that

hexed timber
# kindred flame dont nerf other creatures just because u play as a terrible one

so you agree omni is currently terrible,also just took my time reading your arguments and all i hear is you panicing that dilo will magicly get ass-rode by teno and cera, wich is not true if its 45km/h ? (its only 0.6 slower then omni) , dw this wont break your easy-mode dinosaur in the slightest, it just makes omni able to exist without hitting the dino gym and being above average with it.

old spindle
#

Just don't try

#

Not worth it

hexed timber
#

yeh i noticed

#

threading thin ice 😂

wooden agate
#

idk both of you were being just straight up nasty to each other lol

autumn bluff
#

Dilos r too op right now, they r very fast, they resist a lot of hits, and the clones made a lot of damage

#

is not a skill issue, what u can do vs 5 dilos and they clones? u cant do anything

warm smelt
#

i guess run is the only option

#

depending on what you are playing of course. groups are stronger than solo, and prey can be weaker than predators. surviving is winning and running is all you can do sometimes

midnight heron
#

But I was giving feedback 🤷‍♂️

#

Dilo needs fixing

#

They are everywhere

warm smelt
#

new thing fun thing?

midnight heron
#

Yeah

#

But they should limit the amount of 1 type of Dino in a server at a time 🤷‍♂️

warm smelt
#

idk

#

im sure if they bring out brachio, every grass eater will be playing it or playing bird to watch how tall they get

#

its just the cycle of the new thing

midnight heron
#

A week ago the whole server was just Dilos 🤣

#

No stegos

#

No carnos

#

No ceras

warm smelt
#

yep. people who were playing the strongest brokest dino said 'heyoo new dino dropped, lets all play it'

midnight heron
#

No anything but Dilo

limber hull
#

they also released herrera, who much less people play because it's not half as OP as dilo

it's absolutely more than "new dino hype", which often wears off after a few weeks

warm smelt
#

i wonder how many of the same arguments made supporting stego supremacy will still be made

limber hull
#

this is like when they released cera and it was an endurance goliath that would run down most of the roster

midnight heron
#

Herrera just need a tiny buff to it’s max stam and it would be better

warm smelt
#

honestly i think troodon might be fun right now

#

zoom around, wooooHAAAAAA

limber hull
midnight heron
#

On gateway yeah

warm smelt
limber hull
#

nah

#

no way was stego even remotely close to that

#

it's always been a joke imho

midnight heron
#

?

warm smelt
#

elaborate?

midnight heron
#

It can go toe to toe with a deino?

limber hull
#

at no point has a stego posed a meaningful threat to me as anything but a stego

warm smelt
#

then you are a super player, and your skill set doesn't reflect the average player, and your viewpoint applies only to the top 10% of all the players

limber hull
midnight heron
#

Exactly

limber hull
#

but stego itself is absolutely garbage at fighting any apexes besides that, and we will see that with rex's soon arrival

warm smelt
#

for the average player, who doesn't have high skill ceiling skills nor the time to dedicate to learn that, stego hard countered nearly every possible averagely played dino

limber hull
#

yep

midnight heron
#

No…

limber hull
#

its attacks and movement are too slow and sluggish to do enough DPS or escape a rex

#

it will absolutely die to the first rex that sees it

#

its weight, speed and DPS are too low

warm smelt
#

don't need dps with hgue alpha strike

#

oh yeah it'll die to rex

midnight heron
#

There are no Rex’s in gateway though

limber hull
#

"huge alpha strike" would only hit rex's legs and do basically a tenth of its health

warm smelt
#

but until dilo, for the average players, it was the biggest badest option

warm smelt
#

i'd love to read it if you have access to the testing of hitboxes in a youtube vid or something

limber hull
# warm smelt source?

math. Stego does 1250 damage, leg hitboxes more than usually have a multiplier of 75%, and rex has a health pool of around 8-9 thousand

1250 x 0.75 = 937

You'd be doing a little bit over a tenth, but not much

warm smelt
#

source document showing that math? you state 'usually have a multiplier' can i see where that's from?

limber hull
#

also stego's swing is very low to the ground. It's why stego is getting a brand new attack which will apparently be much more powerful and capable of going upwards

warm smelt
#

i gotta call bs here, because the stego swing was huge. was it nerfed?

limber hull
#

in fact stego is getting a plethora of buffs just to exist in a post-rex world

midnight heron
#

…..

warm smelt
midnight heron
#

:I

midnight heron
limber hull
#

when i think of good animals, i dont think of stego

warm smelt
#

we're talking today, on the server, right now. not of future and why its goona be so broke in the future which is why its bad now. that doesn't argue

midnight heron
#

He just want to argue 🤷‍♂️

limber hull
#

stego has never been dominant, it is always somewhere, but has never reached the popularity of other "apexes" as you call them, because it isn't that good

warm smelt
limber hull
#

deino has always outpopulated stego

warm smelt
midnight heron
#

I’ve seen packs of stegos in 8-20 ranges 🤣

midnight heron
warm smelt
#

deino gaming was honestly a completely different game

limber hull
#

on spiro deino was literally always in insane numbers. On Gateway, people generally started to diversify (with some omni and carno preference because those two were significantly overtuned). Then when dilo came out, that was the champion

warm smelt
#

floating around, eating fish, chill gameplay

warm smelt
midnight heron
limber hull
#

my datapoints are watching a pack of 15 deinos run down everything in central river

warm smelt
#

i think people played teno, people played tons of stego. you could always find stego's around especially at that highland lake

limber hull
warm smelt
limber hull
limber hull
#

it was like a goddamn wave of them

midnight heron
limber hull
#

nope, deino doesn't really need to

midnight heron
#

But they do anyways

limber hull
#

they had fish, a billion corpses/bones

#

well clearly not these ones because i saw 15 move as a single unit lol

warm smelt
#

sounds like a multi boxer

midnight heron
#

Just because they didn’t need to does it mean that they don’t though

#

It would be rare to see more than five anywhere close to each other without them fighting (on spiro)

warm smelt
#

you found a single player who connected 15 times and was running 15 clients to win the fight

#

i don't think that equates to 1v1 performance

icy lion
#

No, there were legitimately groups of 10+ deinos that would exist in Spiro

limber hull
#

i honestly had more of a problem getting killed by stegos as stego than deino as deino

icy lion
#

Primarily in northwest and center

midnight heron
#

Center was alway deino killing each other

#

Never saw otherwise (except 1 Christmas)

warm smelt
#

Bepi would probably be great right now, with so much focus on dilo

limber hull
warm smelt
#

its fun as heck, what is not great about it?

limber hull
# warm smelt its fun as heck, what is not great about it?

i absolutely wish i could agree, but it has some really gross issues

  • its stam drain for diving is still tuned for Spiro, making it EXTREMELY punishing to move underwater
  • its dolphin dive (the absolute most fun thing about it), completely loses its vertical component when an adult, meaning that you go from leaping in and out of the water gracefully to bellyflopping clumsily over and over again, failing to properly capitalise on the speed boost. Juvis and subs don't have this issue and are legit fun
  • no fish spawns
#

the worst part about a lot of these issues is how they make beipi feel... clumsy, which absolutely it should never feel, because it is meant to be exceptionally graceful

warm smelt
#

where is your information from?

limber hull
#

playing it

warm smelt
#

when, on spiro a year ago?

limber hull
#

there's no way you played it recently if you think fish are plentiful

#

because there is an actual, documented bug which has caused fish AI to never respawn, meaning that the entire map will become barren of them very fast

warm smelt
#

are you meaning no elite fish?

limber hull
#

no ANY fish

#

its a very big issue

#

made a lot of animals very hard to sustain (ptera and beipi mainly)

spark coral
#

Is the fog bug gonna get fixed soon? 😦

wooden agate
#

#general-feedback message

@wide tinsel its more of a geforce now issue rather than the isle. you'll have to wait till evrima becomes the main branch.

wooden agate
clever seal
#

fish arent plentiful

#

even in hotspots, and trying to move around is a nightmare

limber hull
#

fish are literally bugged, so your chances of finding them are little to none

clever seal
#

they need to add compy and or ptero to its diet

limber hull
clever seal
limber hull
#

nah

#

stamina isn't why i like its younger stages

clever seal
#

wdym then?

#

its movement?

limber hull
#

try the dolphin dive

clever seal
#

yeah its a bit less fun

limber hull
#

it's subtle, but it gets gradually worse as you grow

#

you don't notice it because of the time taken

#

but spawn in as a beipi with admin, then grow to full, and it's night and day

clever seal
#

i get that, but primarily my main erk is the stamina, but that applys to the system as a whole

limber hull
#

i genuinely like the stamina system for the mostpart

#

i think beipi drains too much while diving but that's it

clever seal
#

mhm I think it should freely swim underwater without draining little to any stam

limber hull
#

i don't really agree

#

i personally think the fact that beipi drains more stam underwater is fine

limber hull
#

because the entire point is beipi is fighting against its own bouyancy to stay down there

#

yea, i think it drains too much, but that doesn't mean i think it shouldnt drain

clever seal
#

dude ur kinda contradicting yourself,

limber hull
#

im not

clever seal
#

how about on land? I get its not a runner but when you are forced onto land because of deinos

limber hull
#

it has a ton of land stam tbh

#

its just not very fast

clever seal
#

cause u cant see anything, weird how the chocolate water is less murkey then the mountain lake

viral hare
limber hull
#

what a wild and wacky conclusion to jump to

opaque gale
limber hull
#

so SOME herbis of similar species will be able to communicate

viral hare
#

Most of them ... doesnt change that Herbivores in the NATURE IN REAL LIFE ... are building herds together (LIKE IN AFRICA) why do you think it wasnt a thing at that time ...

opaque gale
limber hull
#

and usually they prefer to move with their own kind, not with other herbis

cedar drum
opaque gale
#

Like it would be nice if it were like ceratopsians could communicate with each other

opaque gale
#

But not a trike with a theri for example

limber hull
#

overall, i think herbis should have a healthy level of competition

viral hare
opaque gale
#

Herbis shouldn’t always be friendly to eachother thats not realistic

limber hull
#

^

viral hare
limber hull
#

sounds like a herbi issue if that little people are playing

why am i mixpacker for not wanting a mixpacking tool?

viral hare
limber hull

that's actually baffling

#

the roundabout

viral hare
limber hull
#

you're using it... hmm... suspicious

are you a mixpacker?

viral hare
#

I dont want mixpacking with herbis/carnis but it would just be realistic if you can make a herd of some Stegos/Tenons

opaque gale

limber hull
viral hare
opaque gale
limber hull

i personally think it's fine if herbis cooperate, but i don't like the idea of them all chatting to each other

onyx wadi
#

i agree with Kw1, mixpacking under herbivores is sound but carnis mixpacking is just unrealistic

viral hare
#

the point I wanna make ... your argument seems to be the realism ... but the reality isnt like it is

opaque gale
#

@limber hull yeah he is calling me out for something he did himself very mature.

limber hull
#

herbis prefer to migrate amongst their own kind

#

most congregations of several species happens near vital resources, like water or dense food, but they typically stay away from each other in most cases

viral hare
#

why do you wanna make it look like if you can talk to others you hate your species 🙂

opaque gale
#

You can’t take criticism man. You could’ve just been friendly but okay

limber hull
#

in reality, most herbivores tolerate each others presence. They WILL become aggressive if another herbivore species makes a move they dislike, so it's less "let's work together to survive the scary carnivores" and more "you mind yourself, and i'll mind myself"

viral hare
#

you didnt criticize me you argued and I tried to show you why some of your points arent valid

all species generally do not spend much time near other species unless specific conditions are met, such as a mutually beneficial relationship, or specific conditions in their upbringing that integrates an animal into a group of another species

i'd prefer getting to the root of why herbi is so underplayed and addressing that, rather than granting features for the enjoyment of the 2 herbi players

We can disagree. No problem

herbis shouldn't have the same migrations

but yes, migrations feel like a jail, i agree

all the time when i im migration zone i can find nothing to eat. Just food doesnt spawn there ._.

viral hare
# cedar drum migrations suck but whats wrong with different migrations

theres nothing wrong if you have more than 5 species ... atm you play stego ... your migration: swamp ... no one else there (except a hypsi sometimes you cant talk to him) you play Teno ... migration: NE you go there ... 3 pachys there no tenon ... 3 carnos with two tenons run to you and kill you ... if there would be the stegos too for example they could protect you from this hell

different species dont interact with each other because balance...

having more species means less likely that someone else is playing same species, which means that options of grouping up lessen, further making x playable having smaller pick rate

global chat in legacy was for the whole map or local ? because a local chat cant be that bad right

#

i love a chat, and i very well can take it if people get nasty in it, but if it gets too much it just ruins the experience for everyone.. and i am not childcare to put them into their place

kindred flame
#

what i find annoying in people is that they can counter maybe not the venom but the dilos itsself and yet wants to nerf it more than its ability, as a teno use claw attack and kicks, dont stand in one place for it to let it bite you its not like a carno you can just knock out. and with omni idk how hard is it to run away from a much less agile dino- like doesnt carno exist?

limber hull
#

carno doesn't have more stamina than omni

kindred flame
#

the venom needs much less time duration

limber hull
#

also, dilo has more agility than carno

kindred flame
limber hull
#

no, it just has more agility

#

i've played both, dilo feels immediately more agile while trotting, sprinting and otherwise

kindred flame
#

carnos Z walk can counter dilo pretty much

#

it can just be like a crossbow

limber hull
#

okay but carno hunting dilo isn't necessarily bad lol

kindred flame
#

z walk, aim the target and then charge

limber hull
#

i don't think dilo needs more agility, i do think its stam could do with a reduction, and otherwise its stats are fine

kindred flame
#

people wants to nerf dilos speed so they can do a solo 1v1 with a dilo as utah

limber hull
#

its main issue is the venom

kindred flame
#

thats already dumb as hell

limber hull
#

i think the speed is perfectly fine

kindred flame
limber hull
#

actually, i'd also nerf dilo's damage (on its bite and thus, on its hallucinations)

kindred flame
#

i would just make im loose 10% of is stamina when spawning the hallucinations

#

so liek after 10 spawns u can kill the dilo

limber hull
#

that'd be real bad

#

not only does it make no sense, it'd neuter dilo

kindred flame
#

or like 5%

limber hull
#

i dont think it should reduce stam at all

#

laughing isn't going to exhaust it lol

kindred flame
#

i know

#

but i mean it uses venom, and not to be a nerdy stereotype but in real life venom costs some stamina for sure

limber hull
#

@coral crest no, they won't

#

the game isn't set in prehistory

coral crest
#

i know that

#

but it would probably be cool if there were more dinosaurs roaming the map

limber hull
#

pretty much all dinos are intended to be playables

coral crest
#

i thought of something like the avaceratops in legacy

limber hull
#

that's a playable

coral crest
#

and it spawns as AI too

limber hull
#

no, it's fully intended to be fleshed out primarily as a playable, not like legacy where it was merely playable AI

#

i much prefer dinosaurs be playable and AI be non-dinos

#

(it's why i dislike the rex AI they're working on)

coral crest
#

well a large part of what sold me on the game a long time ago was the factor of playing a role of a dinosaur in the human reconstruction of like mezosoic enviroments

limber hull
#

which you are

coral crest
#

yeah

#

i guess the main issue is that hunting hogs as a dinosaur feels weird

#

hunting herbivore dinosaurs as a carnivorous one just feels right if you knwo what i mean

#

and the hogs and such just take me out of it

limber hull
#

i mean, there's also going to be dinos hunting humans, and 8 foot tall human-esque disfigured creatures hunting dinos and humans

#

so not much out of the realm of normality for this game

#

not even mentioning the building-sized, heavily armoured apex carnivores with regenerative properties and a near-endless stomach

#

and the dinos that can create EMP blasts to disable human equipment

#

and that one thing that can change its form and size based on the biomass it intakes

coral crest
#

well

#

i guess i misjudged what game i'm playing

limber hull
#

oh and the robot quetz

#

i forgot the robot quetz

coral crest
#

i guess back to legacy i go

limber hull
#

all created by the island's machine god that creates life as it sees fit and is worshipped as a god by the prior mentioned 8 foot tall disfigured humanoids

#

yea i think boars are kinda normal comparatively

#

i mean, if you're making dinosaurs, why not bring along some extremely expendable, quick to repopulate animals like boars, deer, rabbits and whatnot? Honestly makes sense to me

coral crest
#

yeah that is the headcanon explanation for their presence i came up with when i first found one

#

i guess the line is drawn at where my suspension of disbelief can eb stretched

limber hull
#

game really never has flaunted itself as hyperrealistic

#

look at omni, troodon and dilo

and herrera

and teno actually

can't forget beipi

cera too

wow there's a lot

coral crest
#

what do you mean by those exactly

limber hull
#

omni and troodon literally are not real animals

#

dilo can create hallucinations that damage you by laughing

#

herrera can climb trees like an iguana

coral crest
#

okay fair ig

limber hull
#

teno is designed nothing like its irl comparison, whos tail could never be used as a weapon

coral crest
#

i only found out evrima is a thing yesterday

#

i thought it was more like legacy

limber hull
#

beipi is modelled after a juvenile specimen

limber hull
coral crest
#

never ran into one

limber hull
#

because it was removed, and was sandbox exclusive when it was around

radiant nest
#

if we’re being realistic to a paleo ecosystem there wouldn’t really be any grass

urban flax
#

The only realistic animal in the roster is dryo
Or rather, it was until they gave it a tail attack

coral crest
#

i see

limber hull
#

the game is semi-realism. The animals appear realistic, but there's plenty of physics-bending, history rewriting shenanigans

coral crest
#

yeah ig

limber hull
#

so it may feel realistic when you compare it to outright arcadey games like PoT or BoB

#

but it focuses heavily on a sci-fi element, and a fun > realism mindset

#

like, certain key facts like carnotaurus movement is kept true to life

#

carno was indeed extremely fast and inagile

serene wave
#

i am glad they do shenanigans

limber hull
#

they do many shenanigans

serene wave
#

otherwise we would just tailride i guess

coral crest
#

i guess i'll get used to all the weird stuff eventually

radiant nest
#

Reading the lore helps

urban flax
serene wave
#

at least for me

coral crest
#

smh when will they add the ability to die in such a way the predator is trapped adn dies too

#

realistic

limber hull
#

they are adding burrowing lol

#

in fact, they're adding burrowing to the exact herbi in that image

coral crest
#

yeah

limber hull
#

so indeed, that could happen

coral crest
#

do any of the in-game dinosaurs get feathers?

limber hull
#

hypsi and beipi already do

#

but ovi will too, as well as realistic utah

#

oh and austro

coral crest
#

i always thought the lore wasn't something the game has set in stone to say

#

i basically thought that it was something like "what if we cloned the dinosaurs and let them loose on an isolated island" kind of deal

radiant nest

#

i read through the docs and i understand less than when i started

@pale niche crocodiles actually have pretty blurry vision underwater, and I think this is a good way to differentiate them from other semi aquatics while also having them rely on their water sense mechanic.

Im all for worse vision underwater, but when you cant even see where youre going, let alone your face i think thats a bit much...
Not to mention some players can see fine with nv on, while some players dont

dire ridge
hexed timber
#

the speed suggestion is because omni is weaker, but cannot outrun Dilo (or outstam it tbf), wich makes it on paper "dead in the water" when it comes down to it. and you were behaving like "oh teno will assride, cera will assride, no.. they wont, just as omni has a right to outspeed dilo (cuz balance) dilo also has the right to still outspeed teno and cera. But you litterally saying, "hey i like Dilo, its nice and dont touch my baby" ignorant to the overtune situation. all i seen u admit is that you think the combat is too simple, and that should fix if they tinker with the venom duration and require the dilo to do a fresh application of venom every now n then ( if they even gonna go with that)

#

also when i say overtuned, i am not refering to its hp or biteforce. Im fine with both those things, only thing thats properly balanced if u ask me. Just its speed needs to go from 47.4? to 45 or something ( below omni and above cera/teno) , and that duration has to be heavily reduced from 10 years to maybe 2 min tops at best (when purple)

having the dinosaurs have collisions is far more skillful than just "hurrr i ran through it"

yeah, it sounds like you literally just dont know how to fight without collisions being disabled. many people can fight with pachy just fine, this is maybe the closest defintion to a skill issue in the discord

ok sure-

Hmm, could be something with latency/lag or something then, performance is a bit odd at times. Cause it doesn't sound like something that would or should happen normally. And if it really is a problem, then hopefully there are better solutions than removing collision.

barren zephyr
#

maybe not removed, but like.. rounded out, whenever i run into something i feel like the hitbox is a square rathere than a circle, i feel like i should be able to still run into things, but slide off of them so i dont get stuck

#

which it could have been latency or lag but i dont think it was bc i never rly lag on the isle

lyric spoke
# barren zephyr maybe not removed, but like.. rounded out, whenever i run into something i feel ...

Saying collision should be removed is the reason it was downvoted. It gives people PTSD from legacy days where non collision was a horrible bandaid for restrictive combat mechanics.

Definitely should've offered a solution such as redirecting the player's momentum away from the animal it is colliding with, as the current collision system causes a lot of problems that you're correct about. You can literally wiggle into a stegos body and just chill with no danger with how it is right now.

Anyway. What I'm getting at is. You will not be 1 shotting dinosaurs with a gun. Iirc literally every gun will be incredibly rare. And the ammo just as rare.

@summer thistle I have been told, that when humans shoot their guns, it will make them them able to be smelled or something, the smell of gunpowder, also bullets might be expensive, and the gun will be loud, so there will be some degree of penalty I think.

I noticed that in the past there was occurrences of genetics being passed down to offspring in nests. However in the recent patch there is no signs of that said occurence.

#

I tested it out on three different dino species with it to check but results were showing that genetics were not passed at all ie Eyecolors weren't even changing. For example; Every female hatchling looked like an exact copy of the mother but not even eye color was inherited from the father

#

Was the genetic inheritance removed or just bugged?

icy lion
#

Hmmmm, definitely sounds like a bug, I haven't heard of any intended changes to color inheritance. Do you know if this is happening to anyone else?

kindred forge
#

It has happened to two other people who have nested

#

Nesting is a rare occurrence in the community sometimes but I do it most of the time I play as I liked the genetic inheritance in the system of it. I figured it wouldnt be removed out of the blue but also couldn't confirm it was a bug either. Since people aren't nesting I also assumed nobody would report it either because they wouldnt care or notice it.

Oh and it's also seen in a YouTube video from Anthomnia I noticed as well

leaden prism
#

@limber hull why

#

They're being added to the apex system anyways lol

limber hull
#

i personally still disagree with the notion of removing them from officials and not deino, and frankly feel they add more than deino to the active ecosystem

also, removing another herbi from the very limited herbi faction because people somehow manage to get ambushed by it, despite it being garbage at ambush, is bizarre to me

leaden prism
#

I'd rather the interaction from a deino than the stego since stego being at the top of the food chain just means it's a gatekeeper to food AND water. At least deino only can use the water and cannibalizes. That makes it a 0 while stego is just a -1 when it comes to interaction. You can't really hunt it without immense coordination and a lot of players.

I agree with the herbivore roster but I'd rather see dibble and something to replace stego that isn't so broken with how tanky this is and power in one hit.

limber hull
#

deino has more in the department of tankiness and one-hit KOs lol

leaden prism
#

That they can be not even fully grown and do that kinda damage and hide in foliage so easily is worse than deino since it has to stay relatively close to water or in it vs anywhere it wants.

leaden prism
limber hull
#

I literally have never died to a stego as anything but stego

#

It is such a non-threat lmao

leaden prism
#

Then you haven't been bored looking for something to hunt as a carnivore before

limber hull
#

dying because i decided to take on a stego is not the fault of the stego

#

that's an entirely me-issue

leaden prism
#

It is but that doesn't make stego less terrible for the roster

#

It just means that's yet another thing that you can't interact with it denies interaction because it has that capacity to do so

limber hull
#

sure, but it moderates deinos, so that's reason enough for me to appreciate its existence

leaden prism
#

They don't moderate deinos imo, they jusy can't be brought down by them as easily.

#

They're just allowed normal water sources when others can't lol

barren crater
#

They 100% can. Anywhere stegos are means deinos can't go on land

limber hull
#

stegos stop land deinos from stealing all availible food and kills the overconfident ones

barren crater
#

Like they camp the banks but that's it

leaden prism
#

But that's it, any deino on land is already suseptible to the fact they're losing hydration and stamina faster

barren crater
#

As it stands, deino isn't that bad on land. Can protect itself from plenty of things

limber hull
barren crater
#

Stego isn't one of them but

#

nothing else is messing with deino on land unless in a big group

leaden prism
#

Don't get me wrong here and let's not mistake the conversation. I actually like deino's but would like to see them heavily nerfed and more with a purpose that isn't so all encompassing. Stego on the other hand, can go where it wants, when it wants, and do as it pleases with almost no consequences. It just doean't provide to the game back. Majority of people who are about to lose a stego can just run and log too lol.

leaden prism
#

One evil does not fix another. Just makes 2 evils lol

limber hull
#

i mean, you can't nerf deino for this current roster without making it pathetically weak for the future roster lol

leaden prism
#

Considering it doesn't even have all of its abilities yet, I think it could afford some nerfs.

limber hull
#

hell, deino's very niche makes it immune to the current roster

leaden prism
#

It's supposed to snap things above the water for example. Make pteranodons apart of the diet since its supposed to be able to catch em. But for right now, it doesn't. It generally exists alone atm. I think it picks up its own weight too easily before being more grown. You'll see juvi's pick up grown big things and it looks so out of place. It could afford more balancing, not just nerfs.

barren crater
leaden prism
#

I'm just glad it'll be moving to the apex system. Good riddance to that thing

barren crater
#

I hope they look into adding para, allo, maia and whatever else rather than removing stego

Force them to compete via food + have a somewhat realistic predator

limber hull
#

agreed, but im worried about allo in the current ecosystem. Maia won't be enough to contest it

Para would be nice

Gimme other big boys but don't make them walking castles that have nothing to do wkth anything else in the game

limber hull
#

like anky

leaden prism
#

I'm def concerned about anky and hope the devs know not to make stego 2.0

limber hull
#

i'm hoping anky is literally just that, an animal that doesn't care and minds its own business 95% of the time

#

i literally want an animal invincible to most of the roster

leaden prism
#

I'm all about us getting more herbivores and fine with them being stego sized. But atm, if all they need is one hit to kill something and can eat 90 hits, it's a burden to the roster atm

slow herbivore that picks zero fights? It'll be niche at best

leaden prism
#

I like the dino, I don't like what it does to the game

limber hull
#

I very much enjoy it

#

I love the concept of animals that aren't forced to engage in the deathmatch

leaden prism
#

As most stego players do lol

limber hull
#

I hate playing stego

#

I don't even want to play anky

#

I just like them conceptually

#

As a part of the whole ecosystem

I mean any animal on any diet is dumb imho

#

Also that, yes. Food should be based on what you can hunt, not what a list says you like

#

Well a not FG one one shot our fully grown dilos

cyan flame
#

So like, under 60% or where the growth is these days, stego isn't as terrifying as people might think

#

But the smaller the stego, the lower the damage, but more importantly, the shorter the reach

#

Meaning that it's easier to bait, juke, and overall approach

#

Part of what makes baby stegos walking snacks unless you facetank them

#

With that said, growth curves could do with adjustments again, but so could juvie life being more fun as well

limber hull
#

juvi stegos are so easy to kill, because they retain the sluggish attacks of their adult stage, combined with terrible range

cyan flame
#

They also have terrible turn radius I think, or used to. You only get the decent turn late in growth, or used to

#

Got a whole lot of memories of eating bushes as smaller stego and taking ages to just turn around and get going xD

cyan flame
# leaden prism Agreed

I'd imagine part of why stego and deino both grow fast is to get them to a point where they can interact with the roster, rather than just live of AI/eat bushes in a corner and otherwise hide

leaden prism

One sec

#

Moved to computer, phone in bed ain't happening when I'm being called out LOL.

My issue with stego doesn't share with my issues on deino or cera's or anything else fully grown that has that damage capability. A deino ambushes, it sits in water traditionally trying to get food and if desperate, it's going to come on land and get it and place itself at risk. Or deino should receive enough balances that being on land isn't super bad but it's also not a king either. In any case, deino just needs all around adjustments imo.... But it interacts in being a hunter, it sits in water and makes it terrifying to drink from open water sources. Its existance has a purpose to other dinos.

A fully grown cera is the same thing on land, except most people will run away from this thing. It's also a hunter, it looks for prey, if they can kill it or take it on being its size like a carno... fantastic, if not? cera's existance promotes people to have to run or hide. I had an instance earlier where I bumped into something else because I was running from a cera and I've run into this multiple times.

A stego? It's tanky, it one shots... it doesn't look for anyone or anything. It simply exists. You bump into it by accident? It kills you because why not. It's on your diet? Well GL hunting it because a single misstep and hunger becomes the least of your concerns. It eats in migration zones, it can sit on top of food sources that carnivores want just out of spite to bully because it has that power.

#

Deinosuchus has to cannibalize, ambush, hunt, work at least a little more at managing stamina to make sure it can drown what it wants while not being taken advantage of by other grown deinos. It's a 0 on the roster, it doesn't add to it by being eaten easily or hunted like the rest of the roster, but it does interact with the roster and cannibalizes its own, so while it doesn't give very much atm, it doesn't take away from the population either. It existing will mean a water source is dangerous or another deino will be hunted, etc.

#

A stego is a -1 imo, it doesn't do any of these things, a player being one of these means 1 less person we see interacting with another since... there's no reason to look for these, or interact with them since they one shot... you're very lucky if they die but they don't provide anything back to the ecosystem because they're not really believably "huntable" outside of LARGE packs and lots of coordination... which is rare outside setup discord calls and groups.

#

A cera is a +1, it interacts in the same way as a hunter, it looks, it eats a lot more than it should be its penalty is extreme hunger. If you're not keeping it fed, you lose that powerhouse and die. It's a monster but it's meant to be and earns the spot to be one because your nutrients aren't a guarantee and food very easily goes short if you're not in a populated zone. It moves players to other biomes if it's enough of an issue, it fights, it can be hunted/killed by another dino species... it provides interactions and has its own motives to interact.

#

/rant

limber hull
#

Cerato literally exists to bodyguard lol, that's its core design principle

leaden prism
#

Right but a carno can kill one, it also has to keep moving and eating.

#

Stego can sit a long time without food or water supply, it doesn't have to move and even if it does, it can afford to without consequence

limber hull
#

This is like the people who say hypsi is a -1. No growth, no need to hunt, can basically stay hidden its entire life and even if it is caught, it feeds nothing to anyone.

leaden prism
#

I think hypsi's a 1 tbh despite the fact it doesn't grow lol

#

nvm 0

#

it's on a lot of diets, it's a neat thing but it similarly doesn't interact with anything in a similar way. However, it's not -1 because at least it can be killed/hunted lol.

limber hull
#

you can hunt stego too lol

leaden prism
#

When I do, it kills everyone.

#

because we need a few bites each and a few dips into where it can hit us while it only needs 1 hit each.

#

maybe if you're a cera or carno that changes, but then I ask why is this thing on smaller dino's diets?

limber hull
#

because omni and dilo are shockingly good at killing it

leaden prism
#

Troodon would make sense if it did something with its venom to make the damage not hit as hard or their HP not so bulky

limber hull
#

and cerato just scavenges anything it can

leaden prism
limber hull
#

they literally are

leaden prism
#

not until the pin mechanic is in effect

#

then I'll say raptor can

#

dilo, that's very debatable without a group

limber hull
#

not at all

leaden prism
#

I'm debating it so yes, it is lol

limber hull
#

dilo can do around 5000 damage with how long its venom lasts lol

#

all without needing to engage

leaden prism
#

if the venom's functioning which most of the time, stegos go to a spot where they don't spawn.

leaden prism
#

they should be enough to warrant a distraction and work regardless of being near a cliff, water, or mud. But they shouldn't be how you deal damage, they should be a means to an end, the reason your prey turns its head so you can go in for the bite. Not "do it for me because I got my one bite in"

#

This all also wouldn't be so bad if stego's tail swipe wasn't the absolute strangest thing to hit with. The timing of it, how slowly it whips out, reading how it goes out... it's overall so bad combined with latency. So you might've thought you were safe, but that tail apparently went 2 meters further ahead of where you were and caught you because ??????

cyan flame
#

Aren't you just describing herbi life in general compared to carni life up there? Sure, deino and cerato "engage" more compared to their herbi counterpart, but that's kind of how that works. And stego is way more huntable than people give it credit for. But if you're asking for more demands on stego to survive, that'd be fine. More herbi competition would be nice, and so on.

leaden prism
#

I'm not because I've hunted a pachy before, I've hunted teno's before, I've hunted every other herbivore or had a situation with them before. Atm a lot of what we're seeing is problematic due to how the mirgation zone works. However, in an ideal game where it's functioning in a way that forces carnivores to seek hunting herbivores in an area they're in because people are playing them... everything but stego is more capable of being hunted. 1 fully grown stego takes far too many troodons, raptors, dilos, etc to take down competently with coordination and numbers. Not accounting for how latency can ruin this too. Every other dino, you can mistep and take it on. A pachy can blind you, fracture you, so on, but you still can fight back if it's out to kill you or it can run away if you were hunting it and it afforded itself a means to escape. A teno still has to land a straight back kick or the tail slam if you're in range of its butt + some extra damage to kill. It's relatively tanky and heals a decent rate too, it can combo one shot someone, but only if you put yourself in the position that's literally directly behind it to be kicked.

It's always funny to me how people will complain about stego being unkillable but defend deino who is the same level of uninteractive but worse

leaden prism
urban flax
#

Also 2 troodons are enough to kill a stego
I've seen a clip of it

leaden prism
#

post it

urban flax
#

I don't have time to look for it I'm going to work

leaden prism
#

bet.

limber hull
#

people say that stego uses the environment as a crutch, but its current design more necessitates it, because its base kit is that bad

urban flax
#

It isn't that hard to envision
Stego's skill ceiling is so low, as long as you're sufficiently skilled you just can't get killed by one

leaden prism
#

idc how it uses the enviornment, I'm actually fine with it being able to hide or put itself into a position that makes it so its cornered but has the offensive ability to send its pointy bits at the opponent. What's problematic about it is the room for error is none against these things unless you run a tank or a tanky nutrition.

urban flax
#

Unless you get a lag spike, but that's the same with every dino

leaden prism
limber hull
#

tanky nutrition? that ain't a thing

leaden prism
urban flax
limber hull
#

that's health regen

leaden prism
#

and locked hp

limber hull
#

which is just health regen 2.0

#

both are health regen

leaden prism
leaden prism
urban flax
leaden prism
#

because I was told it was something else

leaden prism
urban flax
#

Obviously as a carno you'll have an easier time and more room for error trying to hunt something about 1/4 of your size than hunting something 3x your size

leaden prism
#

^

limber hull
#

locked HP is a specific type of lost health which doesn't heal unless you rest, and takes MUCH longer to heal than regular damage. That's it. Protein isn't unlocking your hidden potential like you're Gohan, it's simply making the more slowly regenerating health regen faster

leaden prism
#

boy I wish our hud reflected any of that information

#

I was told it was a % amount of health from damage you take, like a resistance

limber hull
#

nope

#

if it was, a lot more people would be running it

leaden prism
#

misinformation fun

limber hull
#

you think a straight up health buff would go ignored for stamina? Hell no lol

leaden prism
#

nutrition is looking less and less important to me the more I find out about it lol

#

outside growth

limber hull
#

well i mean

#

nutrient buffs shouldn't be so insanely significant

#

it's why carbs remain my least fave designed nutrient

leaden prism
#

they're such small %'s that hardly go noticed as is lol

limber hull
#

dude 25% is not bad lol

leaden prism
#

it wasn't until 25% scent/NV I actually noticed any-

#

exactly, but the others? nah

#

10% bleed resist, I tried it, it didn't look much different when I tried a pack of stegos earlier with some friends

#

still bleed, same amount of hits, still red health, still a lot of bleed

#

which I still don't get how bleed works, because it deals damage to health but running out of it in itself means death... but 9/10 I run out of health from it after a hit faster than it draining by itself

limber hull
#

bleed doesn't deal damage to health

leaden prism
#

then how did I go from orange to red while running with bleed on

limber hull
#

you are getting SO much misinformation lol

leaden prism
#

probably

#

nothing's communicated in the game to convey how anything works lol

limber hull
#

bleed reduces health regen and stam regen

#

also, bleed goes faster the faster you go

#

also, bleed lasts longer the less health, food, water and stam you have

leaden prism
#

none of this information shown in game :'D

limber hull
#

mhm

leaden prism
#

so then nothing rn has lasting, draining HP value like a dot?

#

to health specifically

limber hull
#

and troodon's is VERY minor

leaden prism
#

I've never heard it deals dot damage, just pounce damage increases through stages gd apparently I know nothing about the game anymore lol or ever did

limber hull
#

it does so little DoT you'd basically never notice

leaden prism
#

every guide, every page, every question I've asked, no one's told me it's a dot lol, god I'd love a proper guide system in the game to be implemented

#

not even a tutorial, just a page that says "you do this, this is how you live, gl"

cyan flame
# leaden prism I'm not because I've hunted a pachy before, I've hunted teno's before, I've hunt...

Yes, the other, smaller and weaker critters are easier to kill. No dispute there, but I only claimed stegos are easier to kill than people think or give them credit for. Also troodons should never, ever, be able to hunt a stego, the fact that they can speak to how bad stego really is. (yes, you can use the terrain, as everything can, but the fact that you might have to is questionable at the least.)

leaden prism
#

That stego is on their diet is a concern for me :'D

#

My credit to stegos comes from the time I've spent playing resulting in every sighting with them resulting in a loss of a group member, me dying, them gatekeeping food I hunted for to bully, or water for that note.

limber hull
#

omni has deino on its diet let's not try to think about it too much

leaden prism
#

They have yet to provide a good experience as far as I've seen.

leaden prism
cyan flame
limber hull
#

omni also has cerato on its diet, the logic isn't quite there

leaden prism
#

Troodons having stego on their diet only makes sense under the implication you have a quarter of a server's worth in troodons that can all coordinate without killing each other imo. Which is asking a lot
