MTek9 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Ive tested this on 6 different types of animals with and without saddles and the saddle proved to reduce the main attack dmg of the theriz every single time. Not once did it hit for the same amount as it hit when the animal had no saddle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshot879 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 I don’t think they pierce saddle Armor but “natural” armour on creatures like anklyos that take reduced damage from projectiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not once did it hit for the same amount as it hit when the animal had no saddle Just to satisfy my curiosity did a little test: Therizino with 1007% melee (no rider buff or mateboost) Rex 999% melee (no rider buff, no mateboost) 3 unclamied non-mateboosted mammoths, one unsaddled, one with stock saddle, one with 150 armor saddle. aside from odd "crits" (first number in results, hard to tell why or how it happens, looks random/chance-based with a little bit of effect of angle of attack) both rex and therizino do occasionally, it is obvious that Therizino's normal attack does not follow armor progression for dinos while other attacks and rex do: Damage= raw damage*25/(25+armor) That means that THerizino does have armor piercing property on its normal claw attack, although it is not a 100% ignore. And Therizino is also more efficient than Rex of comparable melee against even stock saddles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sondemon Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 In the test you performed, did you account for LMB to hit twice and RMB hitting three times? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMB (always, has been fixed long time ago) hits once, RMB (tickle) hits twice the amount in the table. Numbers are "per-hit". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll even record actually Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zederia Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Therizino can bypass a dino and hit the player directly, so that makes some sense.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lockjaw Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 I can confirm from looking in the dev kit that it does pierce, though as DarthNyan pointed out it doesn't 100% ignore armor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway Theriz being able to attack rider is completely different mechanic and has nothing to do with its claw attack having armor pierce property. The other notable creature that has armor piercing as well is Manta but it doesnt damage the rider, in case you wanted to draw parallel between the two. Also dimorphodons can attack rider but dont have armor piercing property on their attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTek9 Posted July 13, 2018 Author Share Posted July 13, 2018 I'm necroing this because it was never fully answered. Also can someone tell me why theriz enrage gigas while the dire bear, which hits significantly harder, does not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dps is higher because bear right click is slow, which lets the giga rage bar more time to drain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lockjaw Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Theris don't 100% ignore armor, but they do pierce it to an extent. Even the dossier tells you this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t believe the DPS is actually higher unless the Therizinosaur is actually hitting through armor. I’m pretty sure this has been researched before, Therizinosaur has less dps than the Rex and bear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
